I'll let you think that - just remember who has to have a turbo and who doesn't!

If you want a far superior car, get an early Saab Aero ... they have a rock solid engine, heun from a solid block of granite - rather than the plasticky japanese blocks

They can be made to go like stink! (They go bloody fast stock anyway).

But their transmissions seem to be a weak point. I would indeed kinda fancy a turbo SAAB of that era but I'm already well along the road of financial dissolution and mechanical disappointment via my present car.

Ho ho ho!

**Sleak_MX6** · 1-3-05, 7:59

Anyone remember that sweet 626? umm it was metalic blue, white interior, I think it had chromies. there was a pic of it posted up here somewhere. Well I saw it a few weeks ago. I was on the side of the highway near caloundra (ran out of fuel! I was sure I could make it!!) and I and my mate in his jap cop painted silvia were on the north bound of the bruce highway. Looks like a nice car! Dont know about the blitz bov though. Never have been a fan of them, or ricers who drive passed and make it go off infront of you!!

More info on that car if we can! Its nice.
