If your talking qtr mile I recon the Cossie would win, the main reason being that piston no 3 on the Scoob will give way after 300 yards.

as a cossie owner in the past, i understand why you like them.

the engine is good,its the sierra thats bolted on to it thats the problem!

don't think i could go back to one to be honest, the scoob is streets ahead in my opinion

Oh - no probs - must be a different one.

personally unless I win the lottery, I will never have another cossie.
I love the 3 dr shape (regretting selling the one I had) and ater 3 safs - realise now its a bit dated looking.

the engines are great - but the maintenance is getting a joke, unless you have big bucks to thow at them.

for the money - you can't get the same performance anywhere else, but I'd rather have a little less power and more comfort and reliability, plus anonimity from scum car thieves.

hence now have High output saab turbo

Thats what i love about them the performance you get for not a lot of money. Also i still really like the look of them you soon move over when you see one tearing up behind you.
