My new DD convertible and turbo :) not miata ( now with new wheels)
It's a 99 Saab 9-3 convertible, 5 spd, 140k miles, rides awesome. Only thing wrong with it it's that it needs a new motor mount.... I payed $1700

A-mazing cars. I miss my Saab 900 so much. It was a '94 900s V6 5spd. Rare to find the V6 with a manual, but it was awesome. Had it up to 140 a number of times, then put it into a tree sideways at 100mph, walked away with a stiff neck, otherwise not a scratch.
Never been a fan of how the convertible looks, and you loose the hatchback's awesome cargo room, but you still get a lot of car for not much $$$. $1700 is a great deal. I'm still regretting not getting one of these instead of my '08 Lancer. Only positive I can think of is I don't have to worry about reliability with the Mitsubishi. It's always a bit of a concern with Saabs.
What engine is in it? 2.3 or 2.0?

Oh well, my wife, kid and dog love it an thats all it really matters. Now we get to take trips to the beach with the top down, and the best part about it it's that it has a little kick from the turbo
