I've always had a thing for SAABs and Viggens are just bad ass. Recently I found a well-kept one for a decent price and now have evil thoughts running through my head. Anyone have opinions about these cars to help swing me either way? (pics are most welcome)

I like them also. My buddys mom had one and she kept having problems with the clutch. The linkage or whatever. I think it was hydraulic, i dont remember. I think they are pretty nice.

i was on ebay last week looking at them, i've never driven one but they are completely badass. Go drive it then let us know how it is.

they are sweet rides......once in boost, you have trouble keeping traction in 1-2 gear's (on dry pavement).....

i would so purchase one in a flash if i had the funds......

I read they are very nice cars, but serious torque steer. Like it was a real issue.

buy this car.....just make sure it has been properly serviced and make sure you get snow tires for the winter.......i want a Viggen.

i have always loved saabs and we have had many in the family.....have 2 now. my mother just picked up an 05' 9-3.

I dunno man, I love the MSP but the clunk is driving me up the wall. Will try to get a test drive this weekend and see how that goes.

people who test drive a saab, usually buy a saab......you will see, especially after driving a viggen!
