Yes, thanks for your vote . No it wasn't, but the successor 9000cs was

I don't think the cars of today are capable to do much longer than this

I'd actually prefer to see the late model of the 9000 turbo, if I'm not mistaken the last of the breed had a V6 engine with an acclaimed power output of 220bhp, but in reality it was more like 260bhp and a simple software upgrade could easily boost it to about 300bhp.

The second generation 9000 turbo has it's own thread, but I rather have this haha. And yeah it had a none aspirated V6 to it's engine-palette

I owned a 1990 9000turbo auto back in '95/'96. Wasn't quick off the line but cruised on I-95 like it was on the Autobahnen.

Hehe It's depends on which rpm you have when you start off the line

Yeah, by the time I thought of moving up to a 2.3T, I was getting into VWs.

Yeah the 2.3T is a nice engine, but the 2.3 in my 9-5Aero is better with the bigger turbo

Wasn't it 100,000km (62,000miles)?

Also, they were taking it seriously as they took the 3 cars along just in case the other 2 blew-up.

Straight from the factory, flat out around a banked circuit for 20 days and nights, pretty much proving that SAABs were over-engineered.
I think they were in a perpetual competition with Volvo for car longevity in the days of the 240/260 models.

Nowadays we get planned obsolescence as standard.
