They were great cars. The first one was a 99 GLE model. I forget what year model it was, sometimers flaring up. The second was a 1984 900S. They were both built like tanks and handled very well. Fuel efficiency was outstanding.

The other nice thing about the SAAB's I owned was the excellent utilitarian aspects of the hatchback design. In the picture below, my 900S looks like it is giving birth to a quarter scale clay model of a mid-engined sports car design.

I delivered the model to the client in Arlington, Texas in the fall of 1992 and sculpted the full scale car in the spring of 1993. It was a nice looking car in which a Falconer V-12 was to be installed. The Super-Car days are long gone now, except for the new ones which will now be electric, and much more aerodynamic!
