that's what i thought when my dad got his saab. it's down by the e-brake :lol:

Yep, I believe all Saabs are that way. However, at least that is still with the right hand. I think most people are used to getting in the car with the key in their right hand. Left hand switch would drive me nuts, especially if it isn't the car you drive 100% of the time. I'm even left handed and I think it'd be annoying. I tried to think of why Porsche would do it like that, since I'm sure there was a reason behind it. I failed.

I saw a Can-Am in traffic once and did a double take when I saw it. At the time I thought they looked pretty interesting. Now seeing Justin's pictures, I think they kinda look goofy. I want to see one doing a wheelie.

From what I remember, it was for LeMons drivers to start it quicker? It was pretty awkward LOL.

But yes Dad's Porsche, Moms Bimmer, and of course my old whip :D. The 911 was surprisingly quick! And it was really awkward hearing engine noises from behind you :P

Saabs have the ignition in the center by the gear changer. From what I can tell Porsche sets their ignitions on the opposite side because they believe it is faster, though I think it has more to do with tradition.

And those Can-Ams are just for people who can't ride bikes. Tricycles are lameeeeeeeee
