I love my BRG 1969 Sprite! Everytime I drive it I'm giddy like a 10 year old girl at a Taylor Swift concert.

Had one back in the early '70's; BRG , black interior/black top. No mention of the fact that the windshield was so short it required 3 windshield wipers as it wasn't tall enough for only 2. One of my favorite memories is one summer night when I was driving down LSD (Lake Shore Drive for non-Chicagoans) and a guy pulled up alongside us in an XKE and passed my girlfriend a joint.

Brought a 2011 kendo, love it. Made many small changes already, makeing it mine. Nice review. Liked and subscribed. John😮

The exhaust note is the only music you need in a British sports car.

This dude is cool.

Words can't describe how much I want one. I absolutely love fast sedans. And this Saab has to be the coolest out there. The design is so manly and somehow sinister. The build quality is great. The engine and drivetrain is superb. It is so hard to find a bad thing about this car. It is a car for people who actually understand cars. The German cars are very good (M3, S4, C63) but this Saab makes them all look ordinary and boring.

I'm not much into car racing, but I AM into not getting speeding tickets, and I really like the cadence of this video along with the strategic use of memes. I would love to see more "educational"-like videos like this one, if you'd be up to making them. :-)

Use a Romulan Cloaking Device, aka a good, discreetly mounted radar jammer.

If you drive like you make videos, you drive ARROGANTLY.

I also watch for brake lights ahead, natural reaction to hit brakes when you see a road pirate

It's usually easy to spot an airplane timing cars. Look for a relatively low plane making loops around a section of road ahead of you. You should be able to see them a mile or two ahead of you clearly following the road but maybe off to the side. You will also spot painted markings across the road. The plane times you going from one painted mark to the next one. They are a specific distance apart and a stopwatch will tell the plane your speed.

I could sell My XWD. 200 kW, ,sportscav abd silver . 12000. 😊

Long time SAAB BMW guy here, current LR Viggen 5dr thanks for this. I also love playing with the cartoon filters in my videos!

Bought a 2007 nc prht 6 speed and absolutely love it. Great video , thanks. O by the way I thought you were Brad Pitt.

I had one for 5 years, i hated the 2.8 v6 it is a lazy slow reving engine...and the car felt slow.

Great Video man, This may be a stupid question but I am pretty new on this, can I use a 2.5 engine that came from an automatic donor if my mx5 is manual or it does not matter? I was thinking about doing the same swap, but most of the good car donors I find are auto.

I bought 1 about 5 month ago low mileage 50k miles I love the driving experience Only 120 made for Canada 🇨🇦

Hmmm, Tesla or Mercedes 280? What's a Tesla again? Absolutely beautiful car, the Mercedes.

I am the proud owner of a 2015 PRHT. I have spent $3,000 on the suspension, b/c I felt it drove like my mother’s Buick! It now holds the line and drives like a dream! Unfortunately, she recently blew her head gasket to the tune of $1,600🤮! I bought her as a retirement gift to myself.

He comes off as very biased even before the drive

@PetrolHead1 care to share where you sourced the replacement of the ashtray bro?

Great car, bought myself a 2009 model Turbo X so I'm one the privileged 2K worldwide of which only 14 made it to South Africa.

I found a 2007 e550 fully loaded bone stock for 7900 at a dealer with 90k miles no accidents 2 owners with no check engine lights or nothing interior is great and the outside too is it a good deal I’ve driven the e500 before is there a difference?

Do you have a version that is not air suspension?

Do you have a version that is not air suspension?

had one for 12 years!

Just got a 2007 MX-5 NC with rod knock. So where do I find out the definitive swap details from 2.0 to 2.5? Also how is the MPG after swapping to the 2.5? What years for the Fusion match with the 2006-15 Miata?

There is nothing like driving one its really almost undescribable.

Una bala

We need more

How much HP can this bad boy handle without selling my kidney? Looks like nice base to build a daily sleeper.

Question is the extra noise coming from the exhaust or does the engine under the hood just make more noise? Just asking because I don't want a head ache on a long drive..

Are the headrests original? Would prefer one with headrests but all the ones I have seen don’t have them.. great video.

I've got a 98 z28. How did you modify the pedals for heel/toe? Which Sparco seat and seat mounts are you using?

Had a '69 sprite many, many years ago. This video is dead-on accurate!

My biggest regret was selling my Turbo X Sportscombi years ago when we had our kids. My favorite Saab.

A Honda S600 is much better! With DOHC engine! kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5zNg2V-qbp-nZI

One hell of a review Sir, we’ll done.

I enjoyed your interesting and informative video, thank you SIR. I'm going to be 71 in October and I want a RELATIVELY inexpensive TOY to drive. For many years I drove manual transmissions. My first car was a 1959 VW BUG then I got a 1964 MGB roadster then a 1974 Fiat X1/9 which was FUN to drive but had NO POWER, it would STEAL your breath away in the curves especially after I changed the wafer thin 145SR-13's to 185/60VR-13's so it was DIFFICULT to get in TROUBLE trying to HOT ROD IT. The MGB was a different story it had LOTS of POWER considering I was driving a 1959 VW BUG with 36hp. The MG did handle pretty good compared to the BUG but still not anywhere near the X1/9. I started to look at the BMW Z3 especially with the inline 6 made by BMW is a GREAT STRONG and DEPENDABLE engine. I found a 1997 Z3 2.8-i6 with 114Kmiles for $9K, oh IT'S A 5speed manual which is the ONLY WAY I WOULD GET IT. SO WHAT DO YOU THINK, SHOULD I GET IT. IS THAT A DECENT PRICE. IS THAT YEAR inline 6 plagued with PROBLEMS? I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE YOUR ADVICE.😉😁👍

The car desperately needs some different and wider wheels & tires

My car! An 06 in "winning blue", just RHD in Australia. With 6kg/4.5kg coilovers and decent tyres (PS4) it's a mind bending scalpel that is dailied. Love that final comment too. If you're overly oppositional and perfectionistic you will miss out on a lot.

I've had one of these for about 18 months, mine was a Japan import so right hand drive (I live in a RHD country) and is almost the same as this one except it has the AMG sport bodykit and wheels which makes it look just a little better in my totally unbiased opinion - if I squint I can pretend it's an E55. 😅 I couldn't quite tell in the video but mine also has paddle shifters in addition to the stick and front and rear parking sensors with proximity lights, not quite as good as a camera but better than pure audio sensors at least. Even now I think this is one of the cheapest ways to get this level of performance and comfort, at least from an initial purchase price perspective. Fuel economy is pretty terrible by modern standards but you don't really buy a car like this if that's a concern. Mine was quite low mileage, 43,000 kilometres, when I bought it and was in need of a couple of age related maintenance items (e.g. spark plugs) but I haven't encountered any non-routine issues with it and I drive it a lot. My only annoyance is the heater is very loud for some reason, although that might possibly be a quirk of my particular one rather than a fleet wide issue.

hello I'm Swedish and a bit of a Saab geek. A very honest review of the car. An air filter and you can hear the turbo is just a big plus. Good video and now that the wife has seen it, I might buy one myself.

Saab has been my lifelong obsession My final Saab purchase, is my Black '08 9-3 (manual), I'll keep it forever

I bought one new. Still have it. I've heard of it. Have 6 speed manual. Most fun ride. Great seats too. Interior has too much plastic and the Bose sound system sucks. Otherwise, it's my daily driver and so much fun.

Hi where did you get your air intake? I would like to modify mine ?

i have a saab 9-3 '06 1.9 Diesel.... worst car ever

Great Review, commentary was great! would love to hear the car a bit more... maybe an exterior mic?

Love this turbo machine
