I thought I remembered a Saab special edition named after a rally driver but when I checked it came up with this - http://www.autoblog.com/2010/10/07/saab-marks-50th-anniversary-of-erik-carlssons-first-rac-win-wit/

The 9-3 in the picture looks very anaemic compared to the older ones I drove.

My memory was off something much older but must have been mistaken......

Yes -The link shows that but I thought there was a previous car 10 or more years ago but I could not find the reference.

I'm sure there was a 900 or 9000 turbo carlsson edition.

Edit yes 600 were made of the 900 turbo carlsson and 9000 of the 9000 turbo carlsson were made.

Funny reminded me of a work colleague, in the legion one night, who reckoned his Chrysler Fifth Avenue was faster than my Omni GLH Turbo

Copy cat, I already mentioned Roger but unlike you I gave him proper respect for being a International racing icon.. He wasn't a high level driver though, nor were any street cars named after him, his exploits are as an engineer and businessman..
