Is it "Black Sapphire" or "Jet Black"?

It's just black :tongue:

(but in all seriousness I have no idea) Thing about black is while it looks cool, it gets dirty all the time (I'm surprised there's no dirt on it in those photos), fortunately it rains often in England. Since it was a second-hand buy, my dad couldn't choose the colour, but he bought it for less than half of it's original price (which makes me wonder why people buy new cars)

The red seats look good and I like the alloys more than the others in the range (I don't like the Ellipsoid style rims). It also has the M Sport package, no extra power but I think it has different suspension and a different steering wheel.

Yes, we still have the Omega (which is now more-or-less my car although still in my dad's name) but it's just been in the garage because it had a leak in one of it's pipes and steam would come out of the bonnet. Now that's been fixed but it seems to be leaking water now.

Clueless American trying to sell a Saab 900:

"The... key... seems to be stuck in the ignition. I'm not exactly sure why..."

ending with: "You're probably going to have to tow it away."

Nice video of Saab's entire history:

LOL! That Saab video is pretty awesome. I love the guy's accent. Reminds me of the guy from "Fargo."

On pavement tow match between a 2008 Toyota Sequoia and a 2006 Ford Expedition Limited.

They said the Expedition cheated (well "won") because its Traction control (Advance Trac RSC) system came on. Silly boys, the TCS is always on every time you start the vehicle.

Nic Cages new movie "The Sorcers Apprentice". The black Ferrari (Modenea) has an accident, whilst filming (whoops!). Possibly the blanks for the cars in this film can be added. (I saw a few Crown Vics. well, it is in NY!)

It happened in Berlin. During heavy rain two drivers lost the orientation and drove into a fountain-bassin. A quite new Mercedes and a Mustang Fastback (he drove into it while the camera was running).
It was embarrassing for the guy, who drove the Mustang. It was the car from a friend and he couldn't handle it.

The visibility wasn't that bad was it? odd accident that was :confused:

Edit: I've just seen it on the Spanish news :grin:

And Mustangs are still rare on our streets. :heink:

@wasserspeier: the crash wasn't too bad, so the car aren't destroyed.

A bit diffferent it's in a town close to Hannover (I grew up in the neighbourhood).
There is a 4-lane-road across the town, with tramway-tracks in the middle. There is one place, where the car-lanes made a sharp turn to the right and the tram-tracks are going ahead - but on gravel ground, which is deeper than the asphalt.
At bad weather or if the driver don't know the location, it often happens, that they go straight ahead and stuck with their car in the gravel.
This causes bad problems. At first the fire-fighter have lift up the car, because it's not possible to get out with own power and then often the cars are heavily damaged. Some are totaled, but you cannot see it from a normal view. But the axles, the suspension, the chassis and often gearbox and engine are smashed.

I know....I work in Hannover. And I use the tram to go to work.
Last year all people had to leave the train because a car got stuck
in the gravel ahead of us. Pure chaos. :crazy:

P.S. the driver was a woman :tinostar:
