It's on 04 Saab 9-3 Aero. Totally love this car. Test drove it and that was it.
Questions and comments welcomed.

Nice Aero Saab, not very many around.
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.

congrats on the new car!

how is that car for torque steer? does it have a mechanical LSD? i've driven older turbo 9-3's before and the steering a handful under boost trying to exit a tight corner quickly

your car looks good though!

Thanks all. To answer a few questions:
1. For a 4 banger, it does go like stink.
2. Yes, its a 6-speed manual.
3. Yes, its a 2.0 litre turbo.
4. Unfortunately, I don't get preferred parking. lol.
5. Torque steer is fine. Not sure about mechanical LSD.
6. No interior shots yet. Hopefully I'll have some up soon.
