Here's a good one with everyone, but the Saab, in it. Kinda hard to make out my wife's red 850R in the driveway.

No pictures, but a nice warm cozy story:
The first car I ever rode in was my mom's 1995 850. One of my few memories from when I was 3 or 4 was sitting in the drivers seat pretending to drive it. The poor thing burned a valve on a trip out to the middle of nowhere, but it got us to the nearest phone booth on 4 cylinders. Unfortunately, I was too young at the time for my parents to realize that I could've fixed it in a few years. Finally things came full circle, and I bought a 1995 850 as my first car last month.

My "little" one last fall when I had just bought the 240. It's her 3 season car and she was exited about the sunroof.
