Summary
Saab Sonett In this episode, I cover the Saab Sonett, a classic sports car first created in the 1950s and then again in the 1960s. This car saw success in SCCA racing and although filled with quirks was a great little sports car. First power by a 3 cylinder, 2 stroke engine, the Sonett would eventually be upgraded with a V4 from Ford, although horsepower would not be increased past 65 in any Sonett ever made!
