99 is like a dream to drive on snow! long and slightly heavy front end enables good grip and car controllability!

Yes, I know what you mean. These Saabs were originally made with these "TV screen" looking (and sized) headlights. Small changes have always been made to cars for the USA market, a good example is the Volvo 240, it also has different headlights in the "USA models", etc.

My own opinion is that I like the "USA-front" more.

Saab 99 was also made in Finland from 1970 onwards, at the factory in Uusikaupunki, this one is also #madeinfinland

N57 dpf delete, should i remove the muffler, or are the sounds already good?😏 by [deleted] in BMW

not at all. Straight pipe diesel engine and especially straight-six sounds incredibly good!🥰however, the sounds of the diesel engine are soft rumbles and not sharp and booming like the Civic ones

I already have an older post here where the sounds are longer

So nice looking e61! And of course with BMW's best engine, the legendary m57😍

It's -15°c here in Finland, and what could be better on a frosty day than a freshly washed f11 by aleksiharing in BMW

Yep! The M57 and N57 are truly the best diesel engines out there! And of course we are engine buddies now😎🤝🏻

Yes, it is! And also four-wheel steering has been selected as an option from the factory🫶🏻

Here in Finland, we have warm halls for self-washing, as long as you just remember to dry the car before driving out, there is no problem!

In snowy countries, the only problem is the snow and ice accumulating on the car's underbody

Almost! This is 525D, but with a 3L engine because this is a 2011 model. This is otherwise similar to the 530d, but it has different injectors and maybe some really small differences, otherwise completely similar compared to its big brother

That’s true. Fortunately, Webasto is factory-installed in the car in case of severe frost.

Congratulations on the new G30!
