So where's the challenge? Try 5 lanes of 75+mph with an unknown half of the drivers on the cell phone and throw in one token pinball moving randomly across all lanes at 50mph.

And some cars no matter how "fast", will never outrun ugly.....

Ahh.. but aren't we as artists, supposed to understand that beauty is in the eye of the beholder?

I just happen to think Saab's a darn nice looking machines

My very first car (in 1987) was a saab... a 1977 99GL. It was the same color as the yellow stripes in the road and it had dark brown (ugly) leather inside. I thought it was cool cause the key went in the center console.. lol

Somehow or another I blew out one of the engine valves.. and I didn't drive then like I do now.. so I don't know what happened... But the shop that we took it to (also same one we bought it from) called me the Saab racing team after that...

I have a soft spot for them to this day... and I thought the video was pretty cool!
