This guy (Corey Wadden) surprises his mom with a car she’s been wanting forever – 1973 Saab 99 EMS. Since he was a kid, his mom’s been raving about this car that she’s always wanted: an old Saab. Last year, he asked her to point out the exact car, in passing. She pointed out a copper coloured 1973 Saab 99 EMS.

After 6 months of looking, his friend found one on eBay and he reached out to the seller. It wasn’t the same year or colour, but it was close. It was a silver 1974. After talking with him on the phone, he found out seller had a lot of collectible Saabs, one of which was the exact make, model, colour and year I was looking for. It took another 6 months to get it, but surprising her with it made it all worthwhile.

For over 15 years, Goran Aničić has been passionately focused on Saab automobiles and everything related to them. His initial encounter with Saab cars took place back in 2003 when the first Saab 9-3 and sedan version were introduced. At that moment, he was captivated by the car's Scandinavian design logic and top-notch engineering, and everything that followed stemmed from that first encounter. Later on, through his work at the editorial team of the Serbian automotive magazines "Autostart" and later "AutoBild," he had the opportunity to engage more closely with Saab vehicles. In 2008, he tested the latest Saab cars of that time, such as the Saab 9-3 TTiD Aero and Saab 9-3 Turbo X. In 2010, as the sole blogger from the region, he participated in the Saab 9-5ng presentation in Trollhättan, Sweden. Alongside journalists from around the world, he got a firsthand experience of the pinnacle of technological offerings from Saab at that time. Currently, Goran owns two Saabs: a 2008 Saab 9-3 Vector Sportcombi with a manual transmission, and a Saab 9-3 Aero Griffin Sport Sedan from the last generation, which rolled off the production line in Trollhättan in December 2011.
