I've been looking and searching on this site for about 4 months now and this is my first post.
We just cosigned for my Brother in law to buy a 2002 Saab 9-3 SE. He loves it. I hate to admit it but so do I.
I've had BMWs for the most part and we currently have a 06 Jetta TDI which is my wifes car. I have a Toyota FZJ80 with a few mods. But, I miss having a car to tinker with. After I did a little research, It seems like Saabs can be bought for decent prices and already come some what sporty.
I'm looking to keep my car purchase price down and by a first or second year of a Saab NG900. I want a 4 door 5 speed turbo model with the goal of putting a diesel engine in it at some point. My questions are:
Is this too early of a year to get to try and tune it?
Whats the big difference between the 900 and the 9-3?
Any info on VW or mercedes Diesels in these cars?
thanks
