Service looks good as well, only you're down the other end.

My dealer in Portland Maine got the last silver storm M/T in the whole region. In fact it was in the showroom waiting for someone out of the country to come back from vacation to pick it up. I'm satisfied with the base. The only thing I really wanted from the sport was the keyless entry which I got for $40 so I'm good with it.

My agomter is at 23 right now, should roll over to 24 in less then a month. Fun fact: This is the first car I've owned that was under 100,000 miles when I bought it. Also the first car I financed or paid more then 3.5k for.

Vehicles before this:
1996 Ford Ranger (I loved that truck)
1990 Honda CRX (Fun but not very versatile. I remember I once transported 4 people in it which instantly reminded me of why you shouldn't transport 4 people in it)
1996 Saab 900 SE (loved the quirky interior, fast turboness)
1983 Grunman Olsen box truck. (Got it for an electronics recycling business I ran for a bit. Still have it, but its scary to drive)
1996 Saab 900 SE (Started to hate the expensive repairs)
1995 Saab 900 SE (Help me.)
2010 Honda Fit Sport

I feel like I have the opposite of buyer's remorse if thats possible. I love this car!

(Yes, I have three of the same model Saab. I thought I was being clever, but soon realized that having a parts car is pretty much moot if you own a car thats as hard to work on as a Saab and the most you've ever done on your own is change a headlight.)

On another note- anyone want to buy 1 to 3 Saab 900 SEs? I'll make you a deal!

Haha, way to go Cardnal! Here you are:

Here is a good profile shot. Believe it or not, even with all this weight, it was stuck there for a little bit...

My brother-in-law successfully finds the most unsafe way to ride the vehicle (He didn't stay but for this picture)

Here it is before getting stuck, all loaded up with light iron for cashing in.

I like to drive big scary things too, actually- I come from a big family (7 kids) so the family vehicle was always a van. In fact, the one they currently have and the one I learned to drive on is a 15 passenger! I appreciate starting there because driving anything smaller is a piece of cake when you've cut your teeth on parking a beast like that in Boston. Also driven a 26ft box truck- the wife wouldn't touch it, but I loved every second of it!

What I thought I read at the beginning of your post was I never bought a car "under $100K" lol and as I read further I had to laugh becuz it sounds like something I'd do thinking 3 is better than 1 and then @ the end I read make a good deal on 3 Saabs
