The silver 86 900s now lives with my dad :P I've been lucky, they have been very reliable (and economical) and lots of fun, until I decide I want more fun, and break stuff :P

You mean millionaire AND own an oil refinery?! :P

Porsche 928



BMW K1200RS



Mitsubishi Eclipse



Plus a generic pickup for moving the big stuff. Sorry no pic. Just a gray pickup.

nope. millionaire or oil refinery. there is no other way one can drive those. engines are thirstier than 570cid V8's. I've heard about the same story from every Saab 900 driver I've known.

btw heres my car now (when the tires wear out, must buy 16" or 17" rims and leave those for winter tires):

Nice nice...

Wow, thats a horrible taste in your mouth! No way!

I've gone on a long road trip with the 86 900 SPG and the 96 9000 Aero. True to their advertised mileage, they were/are very efficient. I have to do some story telling now...

86 900 SPG (acronym for the top model variant) has a 2.0 turbo engine that made 170hp and ~195 ft. lb. (264.38 Nm) of torque, when it was new in '86 :P Those are pretty decent performance numbers, especially back in its day.
I drove the 86 900 SPG about 2,500 miles (4,000 km) two summers ago, down the west coast (all main freeway) of USA, a week of city driving in southern california, then a drive up the west coast (scenic coastal freeway), probably averaged 75 mph, with A/C on... total calculated mileage was 30.2 MPG ( 7.79 L/100km) To be fair though, this specific car 'only' has 160,000 miles on it.

96 9000 Aero (top model variant) has a 2.3 turbo engine that made 225hp, and 258 ft lb (350 Nm) of torque, when it was new and stock in '96 :P. Again, decent power. It makes more than that when I drove it for a long drive last summer. I think the total mileage was 1,800 miles (2900 km) on the road trip. Average cruising speed was ~80 mph. There was a week of driving around Colorado (large elevation changes, 0 to 10,000 feet elevation). At the end of the trip, average fuel consumption was at somewhere between 31mpg and 32mpg (7.47 L/100km).

These mileage numbers are considered quite impressive in the USA auto market and for the power these engines make, especially for 'old technology, inefficient designs' or whatever people are supposed to believe here...

(cruising on flat-ish freeway a few hours after a gas station, thats why the display says 33.3 mpg, although it turned out to be pretty close to my manual calculations throughout the trip)

Sorry to those who don't care about long stories of fuel consumption.
I couldn't let a neighbor of Sweden think such poor things about the classic SAAB 900
