01 ex I/H/E vs 900 saab

didnt race but i was driving down my road and a guy gets next to me in a 900 saab appered to be stock one of the old like 90's ones with the slanted rear window i guess it might be the old hatch not sure but he had a germany plate on the back. i thnk maybe not. it has one of the long ones with numbers on it but anyways. he asked me to race i said no because i had my kid in the car. im not risking my babies life for some stupid street race. then he asked me if i would race for money i said no once again i got my kid in the car. do 900 saabs have turbos? and who would have won the race im thinking him im a good driver and all but i just dont know anything about saab. anyone have any run ins with sabbs?

turbo or not, it would've been a driver race most likely considering the age of his car. those stock turbo make around maybe 140whp tops. base model no contest unless he was modded.

i doubt a guy driving a old school saab would want to race unless it is modded.
