SAAB 900 two door sedan one-of-a-kind protoype
Probably made by Valmet in Finland for the SAAB Factory (Valmet made the 900 convertible). This rare and obscure car resides at the SAAB museum in Uuisikaupunki, Finland.

Today I agreed to purchase my second SAAB. She’s a 1987 SAAB 900i, 8 valve engine, no turbo, in white with red velour interior, 247,000 kilometers on the odometer, running great, no rust!
She is a Benelux model, without a catalytic converter, the first owner was a Belgian soldier. She has been registered in Belgium, Germany and France, now she’ll have an American registration!
The car is currently in France, I go down to Sarreguemine on Saturday to pick her up, then we will have a nice five hour drive back home to northern Bavaria.
Oh, she has one very cool ANA SAAB of Trollhättan license plate frame!
I need help choosing a name, any suggestions?

My 1995 SAAB 900 SE Turbo turned 70,000 miles today.
To commemorate I took her out for an extended drive. We left Ansbach and spent the next three hours driving around the German country side. No destination, just driving through farm fields, forests and small towns. I made it a point to stay out of the Autobahn: this was a relaxing drive, not a race! 
After getting home I had a smile on my face, as each and every mile today was cherished, each village behind me a place touched by my SAAB. 
In two years of ownership she has had everything I could ask for in a car: comfort, speed, grunt, reliability, good gas mileage. She is like a favorite pet, loyal and always ready to cheer you up when you’re down. She is mine.
Yes, you can love a car. I love my SAAB!
