2006 Saab 9-3 Turbo Arc Convertible-low Mileage-exclusively Fl-kept-clean Carfax on 2040-cars
Jacksonville, Florida, United States
Welcome to a wonderful opportunity. Summer is here, and I couldn't think of a better vehicle to own and drive than this sexy, distinctive Saab 9-3 ARC Convertible. Having been exclusively a Florida-owned and driven automobile, this Swedish-built ragtop (you know, Saab...the company that started out building Jet airplanes!) is absolutely beautiful and has very low mileage for the model year. This Convertible is sexy, sleek, extra-clean and priced thousands below retail. Certainly one of the most attractive color combinations for this convertible and also quite RARE. You simply do not see this gorgeous color around very much. High-gloss Parchment Silver Pearlescent Metallic exterior compliments the Sand Beige sport leather interior perfectly, and the rich, black canvas top puts the finishing touches on what is an absolutely beautiful automobile! And this 9-3 ARC has all the bells and whistles. The finish is incredible, and this is a very, very attractive automobile. Options are plenty, and they include dual 8-way adjustable power seats (with power lumbar and 3-position Memory), Premium high-power Audio System with 270Watts of power and in-dash CD, dual power mirrors, Ellipsoid System Headlamps with Auto On/Off, rear defroster, power windows and door locks, cruise control, leather-wrapped steering wheel, Anti-lock braking system, 4-wheel disc brakes, factory aluminum/alloy wheels, Parking Distance Control, Integrated front fog lamps, keyless remote entry, factory security system and so much more! This one has the Luxury Package ($1,090 option) and includes wonderful interior wood appointments to go along with the full leather trim. The rich Sand Beige leather interior exudes style in what is considered by many one of the World's most reliable performance convertibles. And it is so, so inviting! This one get looks and stares everywhere because of its condition and Rarity (they do not produce them anymore folks!), and is an absolute pleasure to drive--top up, or down. The Saab tagline is "Built from Jets" and this all started when 16 airplane engineers came together and designed the first Saab automobile in 1940. The tradition has clearly continued. And of course, the power top is completely power and self-enclosed, with simply a touch of a button. With only 79,000 original miles, this 9-3 Convertible is in excellent condition. The sleek exterior has been beautifully maintained without any unsightly parking lot door dings, dents or scuffs, and of course, never, ever an accident. The front spoiler does have a minor chip from parking too close to a parking space bumper, but it is minor. This Saab is just super, super clean. Owned and driven by a mature, female driver, the interior is equally as nice. The completely power Black canvas top is equipped with a rear defroster, for those of you in not-so-fair-weather climates! 79,000 original miles folks on this garage-kept beauty! That's less than 8,500 miles per year! Obviously used as an occasional vehicle, and not as a commuter, it has been well cared for. It will be extremely tough to find another one like this! This luxury Sport Convertible accelerates quickly and drives just as smoothly. Equipped with a powerful 210 horsepower 2.0 liter Turbo-charged engine, matched with a wide-range, smooth-shifting Automatic transmission (w/ Overdrive), this convertible performs great, while still achieving upwards of 32 mpg highway...and all while sipping your favorite Cappachino or Green Tea on your morning commute....and not having to worry about shifting a Manual transmission! The factory 16-inch aluminum/alloy wheels really give this ARC a great appearance and the premium heat-and-speed rated All-season radials provide sure-footedness in any driving condition. Wet, or Dry! The front radials are brand new, and the rear have approximately 50% treadlife remaining. (We can install new rear tires for $225 at the winning bidders request). Only 79,000 original, sunny South Florida miles definitely make this ARC a winner!!! It has been a well maintained vehicle and it certainly shows. Driving this car is an absolute pleasure and it runs, drives, handles and performs as close to new as you could possibly ask for. Along with the lightly smoked Solar Ray windows, this Saab is ultra-attractive, even standing still. The previous owner LOVED this car-(and it shows!) Everything works perfectly and properly. We are offering this lovely convertible to our eBay clientele on auction for 7 days with No Reserve. That's right, the highest bidder gets it! One lucky and savvy bidder will be getting a car they will love driving and certainly enjoy owning. This car has never been smoked in. Imagine all the fun you will have with this sexy and elegant automobile, while still driving one of the safest vehicles on the road. While similar 2006 Saab Convertibles offered for sale have an AutoCheck score ranging from 77-88, ours scored an Ultra-impressive 89! How's that for peace of mind! No accidents or title problems of any kind, and only Florida-driven and documented mileage. We can certainly assist with the arrangement of transport within the Continental US.

Saab 900 SPG is the latest Petrolicious love story
Thu, 03 Oct 2013The latest video from the crew at Petrolicious covers one funky Swede - a 1989 Saab 900 SPG. Produced from 1978 to 1998, the 900 enjoyed a long history, and thanks to its iconic look, it's quickly becoming a modern classic for the off-kilter car enthusiast. The SPG, short for Special Performance Group, makes this a particularly rare find, with owner Jordan Melville saying, "I didn't even realize what I had at the time."
Melville gives a rundown of his life with the 900 and his passion for Saab overall, even reflecting on that dark day that saw the Swedish brand closed its doors. As always, the videography is excellent and the story is intriguing in this latest video from Petrolicious. You can view the entire video down below.
Saab begins 9-3 EV pilot production
Thu, 10 Apr 2014To say that Saab has had a tough time lately would be like saying that it's been a little colder than usual this winter. After General Motors finally gave up and sold it to Spyker in 2010, Saab declared bankruptcy the following year. GM successfully blocked Spyker from selling Saab to Chinese automaker Youngman the following year, but ultimately it ended up in the hands of another Chinese consortium called NEVS. Standing as it does for National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the new owners promised not only to restart production of the long-suffering 9-3, but also to turn it into an electric vehicle. And that's just what it's doing.
The latest news coming out of Sweden indicates that NEVS/Saab has started building the first examples of the 9-3 EV. These first 200 or so examples are set to be shipped off to Qingdao - the Chinese city that is home to the Tsingtao brewery, hosted the sailing components of the 2008 summer games on Beijing, was supposed to host an IndyCar race in 2012 before it was canceled, and also itself just happens to own 22 percent of NEVS.
These first EVs have their batteries mounted down low in the chassis for a low center of gravity and have a range of about 20 miles on a full charge. That's absolutely paltry compared to the other EVs on the market: a Nissan Leaf will travel more than four times that distance, and a Tesla Model S will go ten times farther on a charge.
Junkyard Gem: 1987 Saab 900 4-Door Sedan
Sat, Jul 29 2023Saab sold the original 900 in the United States from the 1979 through 1993 model years (followed by another few years of Opel Vectra-based 900s), and most of the 900s you'll find today are the higher-end models with 16-valve engines and/or turbochargers. Last year in this series, we saw a 900 Turbo and a 900 Turbo Convertible in Colorado car graveyards, and now it's time to take a look at a used-up Colorado 900 with the base 8-valve engine and few extras. The cheapest new 1987 Saab available here was the base three-door hatchback with 5-speed manual transmission, which had an MSRP of $14,395 (about $39,497 in 2023 dollars). If you wanted a new 900 with four doors that year, the price of admission started at $14,805 ($40,622 after inflation). That's the car we've got here. The engine is a 2.0-liter SOHC slant-four, the direct descendant of the engine originally developed in partnership with Triumph for use in the Saab 99 and Triumph Dolomite. The Triumph TR7 used members of this engine family as well. This engine was rated at 110 horsepower and 118 pound-feet. The naturally-aspirated 16-valve version in the '87 900S made 125 horses, while the 900 Turbo had 160 horsepower. The automatic transmission cost an extra $430 (about $1,180 now); most 900 buyers chose the five-on-the-floor manual. In fact, I have never documented a junked 1979-1993 Saab 900 with an automatic. This one came close to the 175,000-mile mark during its life. The paint is somewhat faded, but the interior looks good for a car this age. Its owner or owners took good care of it. The body has a few dents but no rust worth mentioning. If it had been a 900S or a 900 Turbo, it would have had a better chance of avoiding this fate. Saab's innovative technology for 1987 starts at around $15,000 and goes up to the $20,000,000 Viggen (the fighter plane, not the later hot-rod 9-3 that borrowed the Viggen name).
