I definitely like Saabs. I'm a bit indifferent towards Volvos, though. My friend has a turboed Volvo. I forget which one.

Ditto. My next car will be manual. My Neon wasn't a choice made by me, even though I'm paying everything on it.

Volvos are awesome, sweedish tanks. The only thing cooler than a sleeper volvo, is that should you happen to crash the volvo at high speed you'll live to tell about it - unlike a lot of cars.

There is a sweet deal on a 2001 GS300 by my house (about 3 hours from you). 53K for $16,000. No BS. If you want luxo performance, you really can't go wrong with it.
It's dark blue with cream light tan interior. Auto as well. And it has some budget ass looking chrome wheels on it, but it's hot. Want the AutoTrader link? I am not just passing it out because I am seriously considering talking some numbers on the way home today on it.
