How many Saabs have you owned?
I've owned 4, all c900s: 2 1985s and 2 1990s. I've currently got 3. The damn things are so addictive. I want more!

7 in the last 6 years. And loved every one of them. Two 9-3, four 9-5 and one 9-4. 3 new and 4 used. But I am going to keep my 9-4 for a long time. Well.. I have said that about all of the previous ones so we'll see. Many of them were bought far away from home which is part of the fun.

Where I lived
Picked up in
2006 9-3 2.0T SS California Sweden 2006 9-3 Aero SC California local dealer 2001 9-5 2.3t wagon Michigan Florida 2005 9-5 Aero wagon Michigan Boston 2006 9-5 Aero wagon Michigan California 2005 9-5 Aero wagon Michigan Virginia 2011 9-4 3.0i Michigan Ohio
Even though it is usually not a good idea to buy and sell cars this often, I didn't loose a lot of money on them. The new ones (9-3 and 9-4), I got with a significant discount and the 1st one had the additional perks of European Delivery. That's pretty much a priceless experience.
When I finally settle down a bit and have a house with a large garage, I want to get a 900 or earlier model. The 900 convertible is high on my list.

4, but only one at a time. 3 classic 900 3-doors and my current 2005 9-3. I've seen the hp increase from 110 to 128 to 175.

Just two. The 9k CSE that made me an addict to SAAB (still running around my city) and the 9 5 Aero I still own and plan to for years to come.

I guess about 7 or so since a few involved a "custodial" relationship and since I paid for them; kids, need I say more.
3 900 classics all MT's but ner' a turbo.
2 ng900's again ner' a turbo.
1 first gen 9-5
2 XWD's ..... hiss & hearse Wifey's is an 09 SS with a 2.0 MT and mine is an 08 2.8 with Autotragic and a Stage "0" by Mr. Brian of V-tunes.
My son has been working a 1996 900se a bit at a time and a tune some wheels ... black on black, I kind of like it.Semper ubi sububi in caput tuum

Sigh Frank, I'd take any one of your previous Saabs. Ok, except the '91 2.3t wagon. Great presentation of 'em, BTW.

I cheated a bit.. all of these Saabs were owned by financial institutions. I just made monthly payments and they let me drive them.
I am single, no major responsibilities and don't have any children. I have to spend my money on something, right?
