You can bid with confidence on this classic 900S with an 89 SPG retrofit. It has a normally aspirated engine(which is why the transmission still works). The car is originally a California car and I moved it to Indiana 2 years ago. Only serviced by Saab enthusiast mechanics, but it  hasn't needed much since I bought it 5 years ago, with 165,000 miles on it. 

You are looking at a classic Saab, so I presume you know something  about these cars.
Here is the skinny; New (excellent used)bronze tinted windshield, new front brake pads, new throttle dashpot, new spark plugs, newer fuel pump, Right side outer CVJ boot, newer AC fan. Headliner is 5 years old and a little stained. The seats are out of a 90,000 mile car so they are comfortable and purple. Has typical aftermarket Alpine stereo but CD does not work, has MP3 dock input.
The Air conditioner works and was retrofitted 4 years ago with R134 refrigerant.
I have recently taken 2 cross country trips with this car. One to the outer limits of Maine and the other to South Carolina. The only issue was with the shift shaft coupler which was replaced.
This car consistently gets 33 MPG on the highway and does not burn ANY oil.
Now for what I know that it needs; Steering rack leaks, steering knuckle binds. Needs a new exhaust, but is wrapped and quiet! The central lock does not work, due to wire insulation deterioration and a short somewhere. This deterioration is also occurring on the wires to the cruise control and it will disengage over a stiff bump. The vacuum hoses for this unit are new so this is not the issue. As I said it works.
Fuel filler neck leaks, I have the replacement. Tachometer works intermittently.
A good freeze, helped to tear the weatherstrip loose on the drivers door, so there is some leakage that occurs when it rains. I doubt there is rust under this area, but this needs to be addressed.
I painted this car myself 5 years ago, spot filler only in body(really) and replaced the passenger door and hood from different cars. there are no dents, no rust through(anywhere) including front suspension trouble area!
This is a 27 year old car with 252,000 miles on it. It is by no means perfect but I obviously will drive it anywhere AND SO CAN YOU. IT NEEDS SOME THINGS, but I am done with it. This has been a truly wonderful and fun car and by far the best car of my 31 cars, that I have ever owned!!!
I have extra SPG parts for left and right middle section of the car along with the rails. Many extra parts as shown, including nice bright Hella headlights. Also a tow bumper and a tow bar. I moved with this behind a motorhome.

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.

GM denies Spyker claims in $3B Saab lawsuit

Tue, 02 Oct 2012

Reuters reports General Motors has dismissed claims by Spyker outlined in a $3 billion lawsuit. Spyker alleged GM deliberately bankrupted Saab by preventing a deal with Chinese investor Zhejiang Youngman Lotus. GM, meanwhile, filed a response with the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan saying that as the former owner of Saab, GM had the legal right to approve the deal with Youngman. But Spyker's lawsuit claimed GM's refusal to approve the deal with Youngman stemmed from the fact that the American automaker didn't want to create a competitor in China.
GM has said the issue stemmed more from the fact that it would stop licensing its technology to Saab or stop building vehicles for the manufacturer in the event it was bought by Youngman. Since Saab built its own platform that didn't use any GM tech, Spyker says that argument is meritless.
The lawsuit has Spyker seeking $3 billion in compensatory damages, though that number could swell with interest, punitive damages and legal fees, as well. Victor Muller, Spyker chief executive, has said the lawsuit is being funded by an anonymous third party. That party will share in any settlement. Youngman has refused to comment on whether or not it's footing the legal bill.

Super sleeper Saab 900 does 174 mph in the standing mile

Sun, 14 Apr 2013

Somewhere behind Hennessey setting a new top speed record at this year's Texas Mile with its camouflage Ford GT, a stock-looking 1996 Saab 900T pulled up to the line to see what it could do. The dealer showroom wheels wouldn't offer any indication that the 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood was getting help from a Garrett turbocharger, a tuned ECU and E85 gas to put out 465 horsepower at the front wheels.
Knowing that, it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that at the other end of the mile the sky blue Swedish wonder was doing 174 miles per hour. The four-cylinder class at the Texas Mile has plenty such rockets, too, this Swede coming just behind a Dodge Neon that did 175.8 mph. You can watch the Saab do its thing in the video below.
