9/3 Aero Combi V6 all dressed !

Finally got a good deal on rims. They didn't had any more in stock ecept a
set of 16" mag wheels. Got them for the same price so I have a winter and a
summer set.

The salesrep did a loosy job selling it to me though. Once in the car, I
discovered that I had a ton of options he didn't told me about. It was like
getting a gift box with other boxes inside. Cool.

Now my wife is working me to let her get it and she will pass me along her
"old" 2003 9/3 no frills.

Breakin period in process so no comments about the V6 turbo power but the F1
type gear change on the wheel is so fun :)

But one thing I don't understand : no Onstar in the dash. I thought all GM
models were getting it as standard equipment with a 2 year connection
prepaid. Have to check that out.

Hmmm... I think I have to buy some stamps. Ciao !

I don't think that Saab has ever had "mag" wheels as in the ones from the Hot Wheels.

? I've lost you in translation here...

I have 16" 5 spokes alloy wheels for my winter tires. Maybe not all
magnesium but probably an aluminum- magnesium alloy, I agree with that. For
summer, I have still have the 17" alloy wheels for the summer.

Good luck with the new car.  Only time will tell how it holds up.  With
the reported power of the V6 turbo, I suspect you will be replacing
those expensive tires often, but you will be smiling :-) I suspect the
old line of "If you can afford the car, you can afford the cost of
driving it" applies.
