Anyone have any info on the car, manual and auto?1/4 mile?top speed?handling?

I know its got a 4 banger with turbo pumpin out 230 hp, but its hard to find more about its performance.

 

Awesome car. My dad has 1997 Saab 9000 Aero. It's a bigger car, same idea. Specialty saab built for speed. The 9-3 Viggen has a 2.3 liter 4 cylinder 230hp/258tq (new this year the Aero has 250, but i don't know if that decends to the Viggen also) Mitsubishi turbo pumping out a little more than 20psi. It will run a 6 flat 0-60 and 14.7@97mph and is limited to 155mph. They have 215/45zr 17 and i think they pull .87g's. Great car. They have horrible torque steer though.

 

155 mph out of a stock 4 cyl?

 

its a sporty car, it doesn't matter if its a 4 banger, it has the turbo

 

Yeah...Turbo makes it all better

 

2002: 0-60= 6.9sec's/ 1/4mile= 15.2@95mph / manual
2001:" " 6.5s / 1/4mile= 15.1@98mph / manual
2000:" "6.5s / " "= 15.0@97mph / Manual....

 

GM will be getting rid of the 5door style for Saabs soon. I guess since they're cutting the Oldsmobile line, they're gonna try and make the Saab more "traditional."
