Yes...a Saab...a 2002 Saab 9-5 Aero to be exact...

I know that this is general known as a "not-so-manly" car (especially the convertable!) but this is a turbo charged I4 (250 HP with room to grow) and they drive pretty nice and the interior quality is quite good...

The new Saabs are quite impressive but I still think they want a little too much money for 'em...

Anyways, here's my modded 9-5...body kit, wheels, lowering...simple and clean...

I would have posted this is the Lexus Lobby but the mood in that forum is rather somber...

I know Saabs aren't bad. I bought mine 14 years ago in Sweden. It's still my daily driver.

Can we get some body color door handles on a $40K + car?

I can't believe Mercedes just started recently with body color handles, I think black handles look unbelievably tacky and cheap.

Other than that, another great job by Manaray
