Sweden's SAAB this year again proved its remarkable performance superiority in the Tegendary Monte Carlo Rally--84 hours and 2,700 miles of the toughest tests any car can be expected to endure. For the third year in a row, Erik Carlsson brought his red 5-passenger SAAB home first in its class. Close behind in another SAAB, Pat Moss Carlsson, his wife, finished first among all women drivers and won the Women's Trophy for the fourth time. Matched against 297 of Europe's most powerful sfsoits care and superpower*! Fords and Chryslers, the two SAABs confirmed what SAAB owners around the world already know. There are many good reasons why SAAB consistently performs so well--in or out of competition. Engine power is applied directly to the front wheels: every stroke is a power stroke, and you get amazing traction.* SAAB has a near-perfect center of. gravity for flatter cornering. Two separate hydraulic braking systems. And the durability and high efficiency of the SAAB engine mean more miles with minimum maintenance. Go to your nearby SAAB dealer and test drive the car that repeatedly wins at Monte Carlo.
