Just purchased this today and will be picking it up tomorrow. They were putting on new tires, HID bulbs, detailing and doing other stuff today.

Has the premium (leather, HID), cold weather, and sunroof packages. It’s a 5 speed with the bigger 2.5L block.

i really wanted a red one, but when it comes to fully loaded 06’s with a 5 speed, you jump on the chance to own it.

Looks great, thanks for the thread… pretty much every issue I’ve taken with my ride seems to have been solved on the Saab side of things, mostly the steering response, noise insulation and upgraded interior materials. Best of luck with it, whats the mileage abouts? Looks like its in good shape!

The differences between the two is cool. I never new the Saab had those upgrades. The STi steering rack must be nice.

You should get some STi struts/springs for this eventually. Maybe pink springs too. Isn’t that what you had on the last one?
