It was a love/hate relationship with my 1989 Saab 900 Turbo convertible. L loved a leisurely cruise on a warm summer evening but hated baking in the sun when stopped at a stopped light.

It was a pain to work on and a pain to get in and out of, but I miss it. Never has any car I've owned before or since drawn as much attention, questions and comments - everything from "What is it?" to "My college roommate had one of these!" Great fun!!!   ... View more

For me it's the 1970 - 1974 Saab Sonett III. Headlights sleek with the hood and a mechanical linkage to pop them up. No failed vacuum servos with one light up and one light down. ... View more
