Saab 9-3 1999 Hatchback 9 3 on 2040-cars
Nashville, Tennessee, United States
For auction is my wife's 1999 Saab 9-3. She all but stopped driving it when she went back to school and so it has been sitting outside for about 3 years now. Now that she has graduated and is working nearby where she doesn't have to drive we have decided to part with it. Because it has been sitting the battery no longer holds a charge, but it does start up fine with a jump and the level of charge quickly increases as read by a meter. It drives and shifts smoothly. There are a few spots of exterior damage which I have documented in the photos. The plastic case that goes around one of the back seat belts is separated but can could probably be easily be snapped back in place--it does not effect the actual use of the seatbelt. A good portion of LCD display does not display properly with missing lines going through the information on the screen. The knobs that adjust the thermostat are loose and often come out but can be put back in place. The tires still have a lot of tread left in them. The sunroof works fine and makes the car even more fun to drive. It has heated seats and the leather interior is in good shape. It has a leather wrapped steering wheel and sport driving mode. The remote to unlock/lock the doors does not work, even after replacing the battery. The hatchback opens fine but does not stay open without holding it up. The owners manual and Saab branded leather case for it are included. In the past it has at times made a sound while running that we believe was from the air compressor, but the ac blows cold and when I drove it around my neighborhood this morning the sound was not happening. In fact driving it around the neighborhood this morning was a lot of fun and almost made me decide not to sell it but since we don't need it I am moving forward with the plan.
I have tried to disclose any and all known issues but since it hasn't been getting much use there is a chance there are things that I am not aware of. For this reason I am selling it "as is" with a low reserve. Thank you very much for checking out my auction. Please email me if you have any questions or if you are in the Nashville area and would like to check it out. |

Court extends Saab reorganization bid until end of November
Fri, 10 Oct 2014Saab parent company National Electric Vehicle Sweden refuses to go down without a fight. After a recent trip to court, the company is emerging with an extension on its reorganization until November 29. According to Europe Online Magazine, there's also an appointed committee of creditors and union representatives to monitor NEVS' restructuring process.
NEVS still isn't giving up hope of saving itself, and the company claims there are has two potential strategies for getting back on its feet. The main plan is to "finalize the negotiations with the two Asian automotive manufacturers," according to a press release. Those firms still aren't identified, but Mahindra may be involved. According to Europe Online Magazine, one of the businesses is looking to take partial ownership of NEVS, and the other is considering some sort of cooperation with it.
If that plan fails, the second option is to take advantage of the factory and become a contract manufacturer.
Deal brokered to get Saab warranty service honored at GM dealers
Mon, 24 Dec 2012When Pontiac, Hummer and Saturn were killed off, at least current owners never had to question where they would have to take their vehicle in case it needed to be serviced. The same couldn't be said for Saab owners... until now. General Motors and Saab Automobile Parts North America (the remaining entity of the bankrupted automaker) have signed an agreement that provides 179 service centers to current Saab owners to receive factory-trained technicians and official Saab replacement parts.
These warranty service providers will have all the tools, training and parts to maintain and repair Saab vehicles, and they will also have access to a technical assistance center for the technicians. Next year, SPNA will also set up a customer assistance center, which will likely be most useful in helping current owners find repair shows, as well as a program called Saab Secure to give added service support to owners of late model (2010 and 2011 model year) Saab vehicles. Finally, to make sure customers have a sufficient parts supply to keep their cars on the road, SPNA operates out of a 153,000 square foot warehouse in Michigan that has the ability to ship more than 3,000 parts orders per day.
GM's official press release on the agreement is posted after the jump.
eBay Find of the Day: 1985 Saab Turbo Limo is the ultimate high school reunion ride
Wed, 18 Jul 2012Yes, we've seen this 1985 Saab 900 Turbo limo for sale before. But somehow, this time is just seems more right. And we've got more pictures this go-around.
With the Saab brand now dormant and little hope for a true renaissance, save for one that comes in name only, Saab's future must lie in the celebration of great cars of its past. And what better way to celebrate the wonderful Saab 900 than to chop it in half and turn it into a freaking limousine?
Claimed to have been built by a Denver area Saab specialist, this five-speed manual 900 Turbo is listed with a Buy It Now of $8,500. It's actually surprisingly well turned-out, too, with a pretty decent interior that sticks to real Saab seats, avoiding the crushed-velvet or button-festooned lounge chair look. While this seems rather spendy for a well-used limousine, good luck finding another one like it. And besides, that's a lot less than the $12,500 asking price from back in 2010.
