- Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.
Quite by accident I've aquired an 03 or 04 9-3t auto with 160k. Needs rear brakes, alternator, and battery. Stole it for 300 bucks. Cleanest 16 year old car I've ever seen up here in the rust belt.
Trying to decide weather to go "stage 3" with it and drive it for a couple summers or just fix it and sell it for what should be a hefty profit.
Anyone have any experience with these?
I know it's got a GM lower end (from turbo cobalt) with a saab head, and a jap transmission. Seems fine there. Just worried about the rest of its potential meatball eating Swedish quirks and how they'll affect the amount of joy Ill have trying to deal with the thing.
