Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"I bought this SAAB locally in 2003 as a "certified pre-owned" vehicle when it had a little more than 42,000 miles on it. Hardly used it over the last 10 years.. and now with a little more than 53,000 miles ... never in any accident, a few scratches on the exterior, otherwise paint is real good, no rust... However, have had several "nagging" issues SAAB affectionados will understand - mostly computer display issues. For instance, I get a message saying to check the "soft cover".. I have checked it many, many, many times but there seems to be nothing wrong it and convertible top is in good condition and operates OK. I also get a display light that comes on to check the engine. I and mechanics have checked it but the issues are seemingly minor which I will share with you. Computer information pixels showing time,mileage, etc simply disappear from view. If you "Google" these problems, these seem to be historical with SAAB, universal and explained ...."
SAAB lovers, this car is for you!!! My CLASSIC convertible has been well taken care and garaged during the 10 year period I have had it. I will sell the car for $6000. (I paid $15,000 for it with 42,000 miles on it. During the 10 years I have had it I only put 11,000 miles on it. It is now showing a little more than 53,000 miles on the odometer.) Now asking $6000. Negotiable? Yes!
Still interested? Read on please...............
It runs smooth, and powerful, and since I am a non-smoker there are no smoking smells inside. It's built solid and an original Swedish design. The turbo mechanism spools up nicely and feels like a jet when you speed up. This vehiclenshould last for many more years to come.
I bought this SAAB locally in 2003 as a "certified pre-owned" vehicle when it had a little more than 42,000 miles on it. Hardly used it over the last 10 years.. and now with a little more than 53,000 miles ... never in any accident, a few scratches on the exterior, otherwise paint is real good, no rust... super solid, been garaged with weekly driveabouts around town...
SAAB affectionados will understand this. Sadly, the SAAB company has been sold off and presently not operating. Amazingly, they sure built great cars and this vehicle is one of them, so I am not sure why this event happened.
However, in all honesty SAAB vehicles, including this one historically have had several "nagging" issues - mostly computer display issues. For instance, I get a message saying to check the "soft cover".. I have checked it many, many, many times but there seems to be nothing wrong it and convertible top is in good condition and operates OK. I also get a display light that comes on to check the engine. I and mechanics have checked it but the issues are seemingly minor which I will share with you. Computer information pixels showing time,mileage, etc simply disappear from view. If you "Google" these problems, these seem to be universal and explained ....

So, do you want it?
I accept cash only and/or will deal with a bank in the Charleston SC area. You or your rep can bring the cash or we can go to the bank together and get the cash. No scammer please. In other words, no Paypal, no certified checks, etc. No one buys a car unseen and unchecked. No BS.
If you are really interested in my SAAB, and want a good car, you will need to be "real" and "honest" as I am and will be with you. If you leave me your phone number, I will call you back.

Saab restarts production line in Trollh"attan
Thu, 19 Sep 2013The new owner of Saab, National Electric Vehicle Sweden, has bolted together its first two new cars at the company's traditional home in Trollhättan. The two 9-3 sedans were built to work bugs out of the production line and test newer components before full-scale production starts near the end of the year.
NEVS acting President, Mattias Bergman, issued a statement saying, "Prior to our decision to start production of Saab cars, we need to finalize a few remaining dialogues to build partnerships with suppliers. We now know that the plant is ready for production." First up for NEVS will be gas-powered, turbocharged 9-3s, before bringing a facelifted, electrified variant later next year. There are also plans to rejigger Saab's never-was Phoenix architecture for production, although NEVS needs to excise the remaining General Motors tech from the platform before building anything.
According to a report on Automotive News Europe, once under way, NEVS has set an optimistic target of 120,000 units per year by 2016, with sales focused in Europe and China - there's no official word on if NEVS ever plans to bring the Saab name back to North America.
What brands have Saab owners defected to? Polk investigates
Sun, 02 Sep 2012When a brand goes belly-up, it's natural for analysts to wonder where that brand's consumers will turn. General Motors has mothballed more car brands the last decade than most other automakers' have in their entire portfolios, so "Where did [insert brand here] buyers go?" has been a common question asked of The General. According to reports, it didn't do so well at retaining Oldsmobile owners (who supposedly went to Hyundai), or Hummer and Saturn buyers, but did get some return love from Pontiac owners.
A consultant with Polk has turned the loyalty lens on Saab. The Polk Disposal Loyalty Methodology tracks owners selling vehicles within six months of buying a new one. In 2010 and 2011, Polk found that when Saab died, owners went right up the middle of the mainstream to Honda. It was close, though, with just 0.2 percent separating Honda from number two Volkswagen. Audi comes in third.
After that it's back to the masses with Toyota, Chevrolet and Ford trumping import luxury brands. And if you combine all of the General Motors brands that Saab owners have migrated to, GM more than doubles Honda with a 15.2-percent share, so all the love is not lost.
NEV deal to buy Saab delayed
Fri, 03 Aug 2012Remember a month and a half ago when we told you that Saab will "soldier on?" Well, we should have written "stand at attention."
According to SaabsUnited, the deal for National Electric Vehicle Sweden to buy the remaining Saab assets didn't close on schedule. In fact, it's been delayed by "a month, perhaps more." NEVS also seems to have indicated that it's not going to be answering any more questions about the deal until it's completed.
NEVS is supposedly planning on building electric cars based on the design that would have been the next-generation 9-3. The company itself is a partnership between a Chinese energy company and a Japanese investment group.
