I was reminicsing about how my car used to be in good shape and I remembered beating a Saab 95 and I was wondering if the kid I beat was just a bad driver or if they're actually a little bit slower than an LG4. I beat him off the light, and we were about even through first, but once I hit second I was gone. So did the kid suck at driving or are they just kinda slow?

Saabs are not slow. Their drivers are usually to busy talking on their cell phones to realize traffic is passing them. A Saab 9-3 Viggen will do the 1/4 in under 15 sec, faster than many ricemobiles and many 3rd gens. A 9-5 Aero is as fast as a Taurus SHO 5 speed...

The body is all screwed up, big dent in the rear drivers quarter thanks to a hit and run, broken lower drivers rocker GFX from the same thing, broken drivers mirror from the same thing, broken drivers piece of the 3 piece spoiler from guess what, on top of all that its 4 different colors from a previous accident that wasn't my fault b/c I was going to wait until the spring to get it painted and I got laid off and can't afford to get any of the work done to it now. Both of my manifold gaskets are blown. The oil pan is rotting. The engine is slightly hesitating at low RPMs. And there's another exhaust leak somewhere that I haven't bothered to look for b/c the rest of the car is so frustrating.

The only problems it had when I bought it was some moron started trying to repaint it w/ a slightly different maroon from what it was and all I had to do was buff through the newer paint.
