Road Trip To Buy My First Car...Again! Bringing The SAAB Back In SAABKYLE04!

[@97I30T]

As a Saab driver this makes me very happy to see the Kyle is going back to the roots of his channel. I've followed his channel since 2009, which is long enough to know how he came up with his username. It's very fitting that he's putting the Saab back in Saabkyle04. I would have never imagined that his channel would have been this huge back then.

[@Lightdasher360]

Kyle seems like such a great friend to have in life.

[@eekwhodat5999]

His friend Chris is pretty cute ;)

[@MattMaranMotoring]

It's so cool to see you in a Saab again Kyle! Congrats on the purchase! You're doing what so many of us want to do. I know I'd love to buy another Subaru like my first one someday too. I'm happy to hear about your great luck with it too, you're brave to buy it sight unseen and drive a 1000 miles right away with it! Looking forward to seeing many more happy motoring videos of it in the future!

[@saabkyle04]

Hi Kyle I am Lawrence Lam here I have been a fan of years for a while now i have always wanted to know more about you and meet you in person some day.

[@OlaJustin]

As a Swede I can not like this enough! :)

[@raterbeast]

I can't get over how nice that interior is, great find!

[@Trades46]

I'm happy to learn that I was not the only one who thought Saabs were quirky & different. It was a sad day when I learned they were getting the axe back in 2009. Congratulations on the purchase Kyle. Hope to see a further in-depth review on this clean gem later down the road. P.S. The Focus ST is nice, but Focus RS when?

[@mrkzj]

Glad to see you sticking to your roots. Been a viewer myself since your very first videos back at your dad's lot. You've always shown an interest in "special" cars, ones that tend to swim against the current in a time where all people are concerned about is tacky speed and style. From your Genesis, Fleetwood, Saab, and 300M... thanks for making "normal" cars more special for all of us.

[@coleysheats4334]

You are welcome for all of the support. I've been on this channel since 2009, and it's without a doubt the best car channel on KZbin. Keep up your good work Kyle, because I'm not going anywhere. I'll be right behind you as you hit your 1 million subscriber mark. As good as this channel is, you will be at 1 million subscribers way before September. Good work Kyle. Lets hit a million guys!

[@TheBanzai369]

Always good to see a person so passionate about his car ( like me ) , even though it's a bit older car. I love older cars, newer cars. Recently i bought my first car and i know what you feel with your Saab, gorgeous car. :)

[@murwaz]

As a Swede, this made me happy! :D I read that Saab are still the 5th most common car in Sweden, and there are companies created here just to service and make sure there are parts for these things for years to come! Wich is great! Not only here I assume that goes for world wide ofc! :)

[@TheAventadorSV]

3:50 well if you like to stand out Kyle, I recommend wrapping it chrome gold and throw in some tron lines for added effect

TheAventadorSV Owh, I though you was being serious... derp. :')

[@saab9-3club86]

Yup, that's what I'm talking about! You are the one, man! I've been watching you for about 2 years now, and I see that you're a pure car lover and a big Saab enthusiast! Also that SAAB is amazing and good for you that you got your "first car" back. Your channel name says it all! Keep going Kyle!

[@alanbonneau5332]

This is awesome! Nothing will ever top your first car! No matter what!

[@dajumpy]

Congrats, man!. Awesome vid. Loving your reviews but this one was special. Really happy for you!

[@carfanfan]

Kyle that Saab is such a cool car! I love cars from the 97 to 2000 era. I have a 1999 Audi A4 and its such fun to drive. You mention the nice weighty feel to the steering and that is so reminiscent of cars from then, the feedback in the steering just isn't matched on newer cars like my Jag XF. I've always liked those convertibles and you got yourself a really nice car. Happy motoring! I can see how excited you are so I'm sure its going to bring you great enjoyment!

[@Lovejazz01]

Kyle, I'm a big fan since 2011, and in my opinion you are the 'new age successor '(for lack a better phrase lol) to classic car guys like Wayne Carini , owner F40 Motorsports and host of 'Chasing Classic Cars', he really shows a love and respect for all classic cars and has been dealing , restoring and owning them for decades, and you have the same respect and adoration for these cars whether old or brand new, it was something that I found unique for a young guy in 2011 and now in 2016, and this will be fun to watch!

[@anassuyyagh7399]

what i really like about this channel is that every review has the same routine so i know when to to find what i am looking for in every video . dude you rock ,, keep up the good work :-)

[@dannyboy7712]

CONGRATS KYLE! One of the best feelings any car enthusiast can have is to get back in their 1st car ever, hope you enjoy it

[@koenigseggkid1678]

That F-Type R looks good lurking in at 2:12.

[@kevinwoodard6571]

GREAT REVIEW!!! I remember seeing many of these on the road when they were new. Saab was still making a nice car at the time, but of course times have changed since then. Enjoy the car no matter what!

[@tropicallover19]

Kyle you are not just a KZbin guy, you are a true man & auto legend sir.

[@alexp6016]

Really clean car! I love it! I was eyeing all those Volvos at the dealer across the lot... that V70 is just like mine, only white.

[@bloodrace]

That '95 car was so ahead of its time. Auto Window,Heated Seat,Powered Hood.

This is such a good video and because it was very special because now we know what this channel is named after. Keep it all the way up Kyle! This year you'll hit 1M subs! So congrats in advance!

[@juanda1995]

Congratulations Kyle! Ihave been your follower since your first videos on the dealership and still loving the content of this channel. Greetings from Bogotá, Colombia!

[@buckeyetree4826]

Got to love the old Saab horn. You know you like it when you put it in the end for the video

And saved himself a couple hundred grand.

[@HappyCod43]

Dude you're way cooler than Shmee and other UK vlogers. They brag about their expensive cars and you just like your saab. Massive respect for you!

[@saabkyle04]

+HappyCod43 Thank you :) Just trying to bring everyone along for the journey and share in the experience and excitement this car gave me so many years ago!

[@apocalypznow]

I owned the Saab 900se convertible. It still stands as one of my favourite cars, one of the few that made my heart race in anticipation of driving it even when it was my daily driver. If Saab was still here today I'd own a new one. It wasn't technically or mechanically the best of all the convertible cars I'd owned, but there was just something about it that made owning it a joy.

[@apocalypznow]

Mine wasn't a Viggen though and at the time it was the only thing I would've swapped it for.

[@alvarofue]

Very nice car. Saabs are special... I recommend you to check all the bearings moved by the engine (pulleys, water pump, alternator, tensioner, etc...). I can hear a whistle in the engine. Nothing too bad, but worth a look ;)

[@saabkyle04]

+alvarofue I certainly will when I get the full service done, thank you!

[@beem1102]

+Saabkyle04 another common fault with these is a crack in the firewall around the steering column. There is an aftermarket brace kit that can repair and reinforce this area. Well worth checking and doing but it's quite a major as the engine needs to be dropped out from memory.

[@niconugishd9150]

I used to watch your videos mostly about cars,that where unusual,cheap,maybe broken..but they where intresting in your videos,so thars why i loved watching them ;)

[@Peetah01]

This type of "on the road' content is really good. You should consider having Chris as a co-reviewer for your traditional format. Great to see the Saab, always been a fan of their ignition switches!

[@Sanpedranoazul]

Cool reviews as always, congrats on your 800,000 susbscribers, we love what you do, keep the good work up!

[@chirssjay1995]

Grats on your Saab Kyle... I have a 9-5 Aero and a 9000 2,3t, love these swedish beauties... Cheers from Sweden!

[@aquateen77723]

Congratulations on getting your new Saab! It looks fantastic. Enjoy your new ride, Kyle!

[@anthony5786]

You got this like 20 minutes from where I live. Love the location of that ignition. Enjoy the car! P.S. You're absolutely right about Florida rain

[@buckeyetree4826]

Got to say something else to. DANG KYLE. Back at it again with the Saab

[@aidansweeney9667]

Amazing. There's just something about Saabs that make them special. I was actually recently watching the Top Gear episode where Jeremy and James drive a lot of Saabs and say goodbye to Saab. I've been looking at used Saabs recently. Might buy one someday.

[@diego04cr2]

Happy for you Kyle. Always glad to see you getting to do these things!

[@miguel-qf2si]

👏👏 i see dat at 33:00 u showed ur saab's dash at night. dats wat i mean. i want to see all the cars u show at night. also. thanks alot kyle. please hope u doo. 👍 keep up the great work. been watching since the beginning. 1million here we come.

[@AgentAndroid]

For a 21 year old car, it's absolutely mint! It looks better than most 3/4 year old used cars I see in terms of wear and dirt.

[@Exillw]

YEP My first car was a SAAB too, 2004 SAAB 95 2.0T You will always remember your first car!!

[@tropicallover19]

Whoever dislikes Kyle's car reveiws has no heart. Kyle you keep doing your thing man.

[@kirbyswarp]

YES. I own the last year of this body style 9-3 viggen. shame it doesn't have the turbo. its what makes a Saab a saab. beautiful car Kyle.

[@fredschriks8554]

Great to see a Saab on SaabKyle04 ☺. Enjoy the car Kyle, looking forward to the review of it.

[@rosen9425]

Same here. Slightly older baby blue 900 from '86 with plush interior and zero options xD You first car is always special no matter what it is. It's basically not about the car at all, and all about actually going anywhere, at anytime, whenever you want for no reason at all.

[@alanjeff505]

A worthwhile & mature choice, one of my favourite vehicle brands

[@baloonia1]

+Saabkyle04 would be weird without a Saab. Seams like a good buy Kyle. Also you are one of those KZbinrs that I have the most respect for.

[@KohanaCoyote]

I'm glad you got an identical car. I currently drive a 1997 900 S 2.3 Coupe. I love it to death and can totally relate to the passion you have for the uniqueness of Saab.

[@saabkyle04]

+FoxyWolfProductionz Sounds awesome! Thanks!

[@zzkeokizz]

I'm excited for Road To A Million because I like a lot of vloggers who do daily vlogs. I'm excited for your content.

[@LachlanKelly]

This was a great video Kyle, I can't wait to see what you end up doing with the little gem! There's just something about used cars that make them soo much more interesting... Keep up the awesome work Kyle! :)

[@dimiterdakov]

I'm really enjoying your vlog type videos! Best of luck for the future! :)

[@ronniematrix89]

Good upload! Thanks for sharing. I love Florida and California road trips.

[@lidsman2221]

Looks like a great trip and Kyle you look like a kid on Christmas morning! Please do a video of you doing the service on your new car. Thank you!

[@Nexccelerator]

Congratulations on the purchase of your new 1995 Saab 900SE convertible Kyle! It's a rare sight in this day and age to see a car like this in excellent shape because I know how much your previous 97 900SE meant to you and I'm glad that you were able to get your hands on this one when you had the opportunity. - Michael

[@saabkyle04]

+Nexccelerator Thank you!!

[@Nexccelerator]

+Saabkyle04 You're welcome buddy, enjoy your new vehicle, and I look forward to seeing your review on it in the future :) - Michael

[@joseenriquerodriguez4862]

wow, its the same engine that Opel Calibra V6 had in 1995. At leats it looks the same and develops the same horsepower. What a car Kyle, greetings from Spain.

[@saabkyle04]

+Jose Enrique Rodriguez Sure is! Thank you! :)

[@simonfilmedit6593]

I'm so happy for u Kyle!! That's a nice and clean looking car

[@Schrott89]

I love videos about cars that come with a story! No matter whether it´s an old Saab or an old Ferrari. But anyways much better than all that super-hyper-10000hp-car-stuff nowadays on youtube.. like Kyle said in this video.. "supercars are cool but almost not special anymore"

[@lopez12345ml]

Keeping it original always, super clean Saab

[@pedronavaja223s]

That's so nice to buy a car similar to the one you first started off in to bring back memories.. I miss my 2001 Nissan Maxima sold last year..

[@ares9304]

I love that GM V6. I have its big brother, the B308E in mine. 3.0 liter asymmetrically turbocharged V6. I love that engine.

[@SC8terRiderMotoVlogger]

Godspeed to your road to million. More power!

[@OLDS98]

Kyle: I must say I enjoyed this video! It is interesting what you did and went back and got your first car! You put a lot of effort into that search. I like the story behind it, and you had your friend tag along. I like the things involved with your journey. Thank you for sharing. I have been a long time viewer too. Wasn't GM partial owner at that time before they completely bought SAAB? I say that because that floor shifter looks like the same ones they used on Opels and Vauxhalls around that time. You are right about the vibration too. I own older cars and mechanic told me they will never be smooth like they were when they were new. I have a small vibration in my two Oldsmobiles. It does not happen all the time. I was impressed with how well your SAAB performed on the road trip.

[@kirbyswarp]

the interiors on these are great. EVERYTHING is wraped in high quality soft touch, except for the lower dash and glove box door, and that is made of high quality plastic that feels good to the touch.

[@AustinsVictoriousVLOGs]

i thoroughly enjoyed this video! i hope to see more of the Saab soon!!

[@p00pie]

Woohoo, love you Kyle. You are the best reviewer on YT.

[@markp9247]

Great vid Kyle! Congrats! I was wondering what kind of mpg you were getting? I'm sure with the 4 speed auto it was winding a bit at highway speeds, at least compared to what we're used to nowadays. Looks like a great find for you!

[@Z4xenon]

Awesome to see Kyle so happy with a 21 year old Saab, I bet it has massive sentimental value

[@saabkyle04]

+Z4xenon Oh yes, we'll have a lot of fun with this car :(

[@mds2465]

Congratulations Kyle!!! Love the Saab you bought. my first car was also a Saab. 1996 900 S sedan 4 speed auto in green. I never drove a v6 Saab either though I heard through the grapevine that they were problematic. can't really say for sure though. If I were to buy another Saab I would get one with a Turbo and a manual transmission. I kinda like the Swedish generations myself like from the 80s, those were cool cars.

[@EmSig9d2]

I had a black '96 900 se turbo 5-speed, during my junior and senior year of college. it had a lot of problems too but I also have some nostalgia for that car...despite the problems I enjoyed driving it. Something odd about it, I guess just how Saab's were always a bit unique and quirky is what I enjoyed about it. the night panel that turns off dash lights, ignition in the center console, and how there was only one small cup holder in the whole car. I have a '15 Accord now and while I love it, it's missing that "je ne sais quoi" that the Saab possessed.

[@lanebonney8401]

Loved this video. Can't wait to see what you do with it!

[@asmulk]

Love the car! If old Saabs are taken care of they last forever so I'm glad to see this one end up in the right hands:) also Im learning to drive in a silver 2008 Saab convertible and its almost the exact same spec as this one so you can imagine how happy i was watching this video XD

[@MikeSpike85]

Now this is a exquisite saab. Nice purchase Kyle.

[@IAcityntv]

That car is beautiful! For its age its held up very well. Looks like a blast to drive.

[@einseinseinseins]

Saabs are cool cars. Their interior is special and they look different. Very reliable too!

[@Y10Q]

+eins they are not reliable. They do look different. I had a 9000 in the 90s and that thing was completely unreliable. Had it for about four months before I got fed up with it. I had a Land Cruiser back then too, and that thing has never broken down or not started ever. But it got 9mpg and I sold it too within a few months. But in all that time I had one appliance that always worked, a 1990 Subaru Legacy, which I thought that it looked nice, which is why I got the 9000 looked similar. But boy was that SAAB unreliable. Fuck. I kept that Subaru till 2013, and th

[@viktorjjakobsson9710]

+Y10Q Did it ever strike you that you got hold of a bad example? The 9000 is one of the more reliable cars money can buy, esoically the eninge, they are absolutely bulletproof!

[@Y10Q]

Viktor Jakobsson nope, I was always into Volvo, Saab, Subaru , weird looking vehicles. But Saab did something in the mid to late 90s and completely fucked their cars. So no, SAAB aren't something I consider reliable anymore. That 9000 was the last SAAB I ever owned or drove. It left a bitter taste in my mouth, cause I incurred a $2k loss on it. It was a nice car when it worked. I can see why someone would have a sentimental attachment to one.

[@viktorjjakobsson9710]

Personally I like the 900 more than the 9k:s. But the 9000 are known for their reliability, honestly. Like I said before you most likely got a bad one, I have one myself and the only thing that has broken costed me 40$ to fix. The 9000 was the last car Saab produced before GM got involved, most people consider it the last real saab (myself exluded). Out of curiosity, what car do you drive now?

[@Speedysnail9999]

Couldn't help but notice 2016 Lexus LX at 12:37! Kyle definitely should review one soon!

[@HPad2]

Dont recall the name of the site, but theres a site you can enter VIN's and name and it will show you the owner (sometimes) currently it still shows my old Jeep Grand Cherokee, but its still worth a shot.
