  1. If all goes well there will be another shoot in few weeks, But rather late in the night this time.

     

    Good, I tore my ignition apart Thursday and had no time to put it back together or detail.

     

    How about somewhere with some scenery? Has to be some cool places to shoot pics that isn't just a warehouse in the backround.

     

    Sorry I missed you guys saturday, I was busy destroying the box in the bed of my truck,LOL.

     

    I was sleep. Lots of sleep.

  2. I am in Grandview and the sound, then the flash woke me. Startled the girlfriend, we could see the flames. (Ground floor window with a garage in front of it. ) she suggested we find out just what happened, so we immediately headed in that direction. All streets off of north 4th are blocked by staties or CPD. Took 17th to 11th then on the industrialish streets, there were tons of people out and it was so bright you didn't need headlights.

     

    As I post this, I'm watching the flames from over three miles away, with a ton of trees and structures in the way. It's pretty incredible.

     

    Edit: The flash was bright enough to light the bedroom like it was midday.

  3. I went to the show last year. What is this 161/Busch thing??

     

    There are hotels everywhere up there, and a lot of the show participants cruise 161, Sinclair rd, and Busch Blvd. The hotel lots are also full of the show cars. The area around the Continent is where it happens.

  4. What the fuck are you idiots bitching about? I bet most of you work in the A/C. :dumb:

     

    Worked in the garage yesterday, power went out at 11:30pm.

     

    Sleeping sucked.

  5. Yea i saw the 2.0/ 2.5 difference. But just as you said they seems to be few and far between. Thats the benefit of having time to wait it out,.

     

    2.0's show up all the time. I found 10-15 last time I looked. Unless you're keeping an eye on the 9-2x board, the only '06 Aero you usually see is an auto, which is rarer than a stick.

     

    My friend has one. Zero issues bringing to either dealer. In fact he got something in the mail about the control arms, took it in a few weeks back and had it back the same day. No issues.

     

    Got the same mailing from Saab. Just need to find the time.

     

    One thing to note is that even though I searched for 05-06, there were no 06 Saab's since there was such a low amount made and I'm sure they are the most sought after variation (due to 2.5L engine).

     

    2006 (1,832 cars produced) US

    Aero 5MT 235 16.17%

    Aero 4EAT 103 7.09%

     

    I would expand your search to 04-07. Some websites list the car as being sold under those model years.

     

    Funny, a guy pm'd me out of the blue about a year back about selling mine, and wouldn't take the hint. Just kept sending messages. This was another board though.

     

     

    If you can find one, they are great. I daily mine and last fill up got 26.3 MPG. Helped the girlfriend in moving last summer with zero issue, I was really surprised how much the car can hold.

     

    Pros: Comfortable, decently fuel efficient for a Turbo AWD vehicle, spacious interior, heated seats.

     

    Cons: Stereo, worried about sourcing the Saab specific body parts.

     

    I'm sorry if that didn't flow well/make sense, very tired. If anyone has any questions about the 9-2x or even want to take a look at mine (even though it is dreadfully dirty right now), I usually try and make it out to sawmill or just shoot me a message.
