I left out a small chapter in my Saab history between seeing the odd looking 96 in R&T mag around 1968 and buying one in 1976. My dad bought a 99 when they were a fairly new model, this had to be about 1971. It was easily the fastest, most sporty car I'd ever driven. Which tells you a little bit about my history. It would jump up to 80 or 90 on the freeway very easily. The handling and braking were outstanding. I couldn't tell you anything about the engine, I think they had two offerings at the time, the turbo didn't come out til about seven years later.
