 Up for sale is my 2001 SAAB 9-3 Viggen Convertible. I never thought I would let this one go but a classic restoration has all my interest so my fun weekend toy has to to leave the garage. The Viggen edition cars came standard with ALL options and a 5-speed manual transmission only. This car has been not only been pampered and garaged but every single item that has been needed or required in the future has been addressed. All power options; seats, windows, door locks, keyless entry, mirrors, headlight wipers, automatic climate control, cruise, heated seats, radio antenna, cd player, etc work as they should. The top has been completely rebuilt and works flawlessly, all new AC components, PCV #6 update, new throttle body, new DIC, new tensioner, new idler, ALL fluids/filters, ABS control module, and much more have been replaced within the last few years; way too many new parts and services to list. The engine has been freshly tuned and serviced and currently sits on Borbet Type CA 18" upgraded rims and new tires in place of the sometimes problematic stock alloy wheels(nice original stock rims included.) The car is complete and missing nothing. She has had ONLY full synthetic services every 3k miles since new and is a sludge free engine(pictures to prove it.)
 This Viggen has all the original paperwork, owners manuals, a pile of maintenance records, and two keys. She runs great, shifts smoothly, and brakes sharply. There is no smoking, leaks, or noises; she runs and drives perfect every time. The car is 100% stock and completely unmodified aside from the upgraded wheels. I have all the confidence in the world in this car and would not hesitate to drive her anywhere, I will regret letting this one go but the next owner will be getting an amazing deal. This is a 13 year old car and does have a few scratches and blemishes to be expected of any used car but there are no dents, rust, or faded paint on this car, only minor cosmetics that can be seen in the pictures.
 We are SAAB fanatics and appreciate and care for our cars from weekly detailing to lots of preventative maintenance. I have an photo account with 100+ pictures I will gladly email to serious buyers. Please email with any questions, thanks for looking.

GM recalls 500K Chevy Camaros for ignition-switch defect

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

General Motors issued a recall for more than a half million Chevrolet Camaros on Friday morning because of an ignition-switch safety hazard that mirrors the one at the center of the company's current crisis.
The problem affects Camaro models from the 2010 to 2014 model years. Approximately 464,712 cars are impacted in the United States, and 511,528 overall in North America. GM will alter the Camaro key to a more standard design, and will notify car owners with a recall notice in the mail.
In an announcement, the company said the ignition switches on the Camaros are fundamentally different parts than the older ignition switches found on defective cars that are responsible for killing at least 13 people and causing 54 crashes.

NEV deal to buy Saab delayed

Fri, 03 Aug 2012

Remember 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.
