I am selling my 2003 Saab 9-3 in to benefit a charity
that I support.
The Charity Shoe4Africa is a 501c3 charity that supports many effective health and education programs in eastern Africa and is currently tackling our most ambitious project to date; building the first public pediatric hospital in sub-Saharan Africa. This project seeks to address the woefully deficient basic health care needs in a region that is vastly underserved:
Groundbreaking on the hospital has begun and the process of raising money to pay for the construction and hospital equipment continues. If you are moved to help us and need a car, please read on! The Car 2003 Saab 9-3 (ARC) with 108K miles. The car is well equipped with amenities (6 disk CD changer, moon roof, power heated leather seats etc) and is in very good shape. There are a few minor scratches in the paint as you would expect with a 10 year old car but it looks good and drives well. I am the original owner (and have a clean title) and have taken good care of the car performing all scheduled maintenance and oil changes. The only know defects are:
Other than these two minor items, the car is fun to drive and gets good mileage. The car currently has the winter tires and rims installed. Also included are a set of alloy rims and tires in good condition, and the Thule roof rack system with bicycle rails and a Thule SportRack Roof Box. Why am I selling the car When I moved back to NYC a few years ago, it quickly became obvious that I really do not need a car any longer. NYC has excellent public transportation and bicycle infrastructure that makes getting around without a car quite convenient and easy. As a result, the car spends most of its time in a garage and is driven only a few times per month. While it is nice to have a car for the convenience, I am aware that it is an extravagance that is unnecessary. At the same time I enjoy the convenience of having my Saab, I support a charity that is building a pediatric hospital for those who have zero access to health care. I have come to realize that my convenience is considerably less important than the basic needs of children in eastern Africa. It is with this thought that I am donating my car to help fund the hospital. 100% of the purchase price of this car will go directly to the charity. |

NEVS completes Saab purchase, earns right to brand name but not griffin badge
Mon, 03 Sep 2012
According to the Associated Press, a Hong Kong-based concern is close to building new Saab models. After some delays, National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS) has completed the purchase of bankrupt Swedish automaker Saab.
NEVS says it plans to debut an electric vehicle in about 18 months. When the car comes to market, it will wear the Saab name, but not the marque's well-known griffin logo. Reuters reports that the company will produce EVs based on the Saab 9-3 platform, with intentions to sell these vehicles primarily in the Chinese market. Due to the continued use of the distinctive griffin head logo by commercial truckmaker Scania and the Saab aerospace group, NEVS was only granted access to the Saab name, not its emblem.
Saab 9-3 production to start in China in 2013 [UPDATE]
Thu, 17 Jan 2013We knew that National Electric Vehicle Sweden planned to restart production of the last-gen Saab 9-3 at some point in the future, we just didn't know exactly when, or exactly where. As it turns out, the answers to those questions are soon, and China.
Though NEVS had initially said it will build vehicles in Sweden before shipping them to China, the latest report from Autocar suggests that the cars will instead be built right in Quingdao starting later in 2013. That's right, this calendar year. Also on the docket is a followup electric version of the 9-3, which is slated to come to market in 2014 in an effort to satiate China's wish that there be half a million EVs silently filling its streets within the next two years.
NEVS wants to be part of the EV solution, but it's not going to be easy. Naturally, if these cars are to be built in China, a factory has to be located or built, tooling needs to be in place, workers need to be hired and trained and a lengthy trail of paperwork has to be signed off by the government before even the well-known gasoline-powered 9-3 can be a reality, let along the unknown quantity that is the 9-3 ePower.
The Saab 9-3 that never was finally shows up
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Looking back on the life and [slow and painful] death of Saab, it's impossible to not stop and think of what might have been with the quirky Swedish automaker. As it turns out, SaabsUnited has decided to shed some light on what the company's future might have looked like, including some images and information that include full-scale mockups of the 9-3 Phoenix, which you see above.
In its waning years, Saab's lead designer Jason Castriota was working feverishly to deliver new products that built on the heritage of the brand while doing so at a lower cost and in a shorter time period than previous models. In the end, though, it sounds like the earliest that we could have seen any of these plans come to fruition was 2014. In addition to hatchback and convertible 9-3 variants, Castriota also created the Sonnett - a sporty-looking 2+2 that never made it past the design study phase.
Regardless of whether you're a diehard fan of the brand or if you were just pulling for the underdog, you'll want to head on over to SaabsUnited to check out a little more of what the future could have held for Saab.
