For sale 2004 Saab 9-3 T Convertible, automatic with 112K miles. Has Florida CLEAN title. This is ARC model with big T badge on the back. Has the high-pressure turbo higher output engine with 210hp. This vehicle is fully loaded with leather interior, power windows, mirrors, and convertible top. Has automatic digital climate control, upgraded audio system, factory HID Xenon bright headlights, wood steering wheel and more.

 

Engine has fresh oil, runs and drives beautiful with plenty of power and the transmission shifts very smooth. Tires are pretty good with about 80% left on them. It was always maintained at the local ‘Shumacher’ Saab dealership, comes with all the manuals and tons of receipts!!! I always take a good care and never spare any cost! Has many new parts including new computer and key recently $1200 bill, just to mention few. Adult driven, never raced or abused! Premium gas was always used. Paint is really nice and shiny, no rust whatsoever its Florida car! The only flaw in the paint is the passenger door and quarter panel has light scratch/door ding that is shown on the pictures. Nothing serious that sticks out or is immediately noticeable!!! Leather interior is nice and clean as well, very minimal normal wear on the driver seat (see pictures). All the buttons and lights work properly and the glove box can be locked for safety when the top is down.

Convertible top operates flawlessly, the fabric is nice and tight and seals really good with no leaks. Saabs are notorious for convertible hydraulic cylinders leeks and they are inevitable to be serviced at some point. This is factory flaw; Saab use wrong seals in the manufacturing process that eventually fails and leeks. Both tonneau cover cylinders that are the usual culprit of this system were rebuilt about a month ago to the better than original specifications (cost me $250 each,) and the whole system was filled with fresh Pentosin Long-Life CHF 11S Synthetic Hydraulic Fluid!  (It is very important to use correct hydraulic fluid to prevent future leeks!!!) You can see the pictures of the cylinders, there is absolutely no hydraulic fluid leeks.

 

If you are out of state bidder I can pick you up at the local airport, that is Fort Lauderdale or airport designation FLL if you trying to book a flight.

 

Purchaser is responsible arrange shipping and for all the transportation charges if the vehicle will be shipped!!!

 

If you have any question please ask before you bid. Thanks for looking

GM wins appeal, dismissal of $3B Saab-related Spyker suit

Sun, Oct 26 2014

It's been a long time since we last heard of the legal battles between Spyker CEO Victor Muller and General Motors, the automaker from which Muller's company purchased the embattled Saab brand back in 2010. To refresh your memories, after struggling through 2011 and entering into bankruptcy, Spyker attempted to save the Saab brand by selling it to a Chinese consortium. General Motors, though, blocked the sale because it did not want any of its intellectual property, of which Saab was in possession of from its days under the GM umbrella, in the hands of a potential rival automaker. Spyker then sued GM for intentionally blocking what it said was Saab's only chance of survival. The $3-billion suit was dismissed after a judge ruled in favor of GM, which apparently had granted a license to Saab to continue building cars using its technologies, but reserved the right to cancel that agreement if Saab again changed hands. Spyker appealed, and, according to Reuters, the appeals court upheld the previous ruling, again siding with GM. National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the company that eventually purchased Saab out of bankruptcy, managed to restart production for a short period before itself falling into financial trouble. We have at least another month to wait before hearing how Saab's next chapter may read.

Saab owner may speed up relaunch with gas-powered 9-3

Wed, 21 Nov 2012

National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the new owner of Saab, has good news for you if you happened to miss out on picking up a 9-3 before the company plummeted through bankruptcy. Automotive News Europe reports NEVS may offer a gasoline-powered 9-3 in 2013. That move would effectively step up the brand's re-launch plan by a full year. Originally, the company planned to introduce an electric vehicle in 2014, but NEVS is currently investigating ways to start production next summer using "a 9-3 with a traditional powertrain" in order to generate more cash for the electrification effort.
NEVS purchased Saab earlier this year with the intent of resurrecting the brand with a fully electric product portfolio. The new EVs would theoretically ride on the Saab Phoenix platform and be manufactured at the automaker's plant in Trollhattan, Sweden. The report of a resurrected gasoline model came courtesy of Mikael Oestlund, a company spokesperson familiar with the company's workings.

Ultra-rare 2011 Saab 9-4X up for grabs on Cars & Bids

Sun, Aug 1 2021

Saab's sad saga is full of might-have-beens and missed opportunities. As the 21st century dawned, it became clear that the Saab brand could not survive without an SUV in its lineup. In 2005, the 9-2X, a badge-engineered Subaru Impreza Outback Sport, was rushed into production (GM being a part-owner of Subaru parent company Fuji Heavy Industries at the time). That same year same GM also put a new nose on the distinctly mediocre Chevrolet TrailBlazer and peddle that as the Saab 9-7X. The last of the GM-based Saab SUVs was the 9-4X, which was mechanically twinned with the second-generation Cadillac SRX and built alongside it in Mexico. By the time the model was introduced for 2011, GM had already off-loaded Saab. But the new ownership would be short-lived, and production of the 9-4X ended after only a handful of 2012 models had rolled down the line. It's believed that a total of only 803 9-4Xs were built, of which 622 were sold in the United States, which explains why you haven't seen one lately. Or, perhaps, ever. But now you can buy one, as this 2011 example is available right now on Cars & Bids. This is a top-spec Aero version, which means it gets a turbocharged 2.8-liter V6 and the Saab-developed X-drive all-wheel drive, rather than the naturally aspirated 3.0-liter V6 in the base and Premium trims. That gives you 300 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque, although this one sports a VTuner Stage 0 tune, so it could have more. With five days still to go, bidding stands at $8,500. For the Saab fans out there, don't let this be another missed opportunity. Related Video: Saab 9-4X concept introduced at Detroit Auto Show
