... or maybe there is and I just missed it?

Anyway, this is supposed to be THE PLACE where we talk about our cars,
or cars we'd like to have, or cars in general. We'll talk about all things cars,
whether it be engine features or plain cosmetical. I'll start by showing off my car:

It's a SAAB 9-5 from 1998. Pure Swedish Power :twisted:
2 litres turbocharged engine, 150 healthy horses, fast as hell 8)
Tried to max it out on the highway both to and from work.
Speedlimit is 110km/h, my car maxed out at 220/230km/h :D

Unfortunately, it's 13 years old, so there's a rust hole somewhere on
the exhaustpipe so I have to take care of that. But it's all according to
my tune-up plan ;) ... looking to install a 2.5"-3.0" exhaust system,
stainless of course :) and when that's done, I'm gonna look into
modify the enging electronically so the 150 horses turns into 215 ;)

I remember you mentioning buying that car (winter last year?). I think that was the "shit my car died" thread :)

SAAB Have some nice models these days, i came across a curvy hot-hatch last year. Not very SAAB i thought, but very nice.

I would love to do some work on a Reliant Robin! Convert it to a mid engine coupe. I think sticking a 2.5l V6 in the boot would be entertaining. :P LMAO!
