Full Leather interior

Looks a pretty decent car Coolghost

YThanks Juno8, it's a luxury car so it would be quite bad if it wasn't good.
For a old car it has amazingly little amount of problems, nothing I can't fix though.

I am learning to drive but I am currently learning in my mums 1997 Saab 9-5 Saloon its got good power its got the low pressure turbo on it (the high pressure turbo has the turbo gauge) and its a very good car the turbo comes in around 4000rpm I barely go above 3000rpm but when I get out into the country roads I usually try for 4500rpm but I like it...its sedate and civilized

We have a Saab 9-5 too, the Aero model tuned to stage 3. Stock turbo gauge is actually way off stock aka. "Feel good gauge". They are all nice to drive and comfy unless you got as long legs as me, feels kinda cramped for me. But hey that's because im used to mega big luxury V8 chromed gasguzzlers doing 12Mpg

Saab 9-5 is a solid car if you service in regulaly and it can be quite easily tuned too.

[Juno8]

I know but on both my parents cars they are both got stock boost...insurance is a pain but I like them stock they have plenty of kick for me

Once you get used to those big luxury V8 chrome gas guzzlers, there's no going back I'd rather get 12mpg than roadrage .

I agree, once you get hold of 300-400 hp you want to keep it that way.. I find myself sometimes fitting together engines with better parts that are v4's just to get there, but they never feel the same as it is very hard to get them to pump out that much and be daily drivable.. I currently have a supercharged Jimmy ( lol ) that I nicknamed "BMW" eater cause it dust em( and around here they run rampant with poor little under educated children about sleepers ) unless their modded too then its fair up to 600 horses. It feels nice but eats all the gas in the country side, and bites the wallet when it is thirsty...

[Coolghost]

To counter the problem of the infinitively emptying wallets I have a car that does 61Mpg without being a boring keicar.
Going to take a look at my fuel omnomnomming cars to see what i can do to reduce the thirstyness while increasing power!
