1987 Saab 900 Turbo 5-speed Convertible Power Top With Toneau Cover Very Nice!!! on 2040-cars
Wappapello, Missouri, United States
About this car . First thing I traded a ford truck and cash for this car. It belonged to a local business man in my town. I have always liked the looks of these cars. I have never owned a foreign car other than a Volkswagen. The owner has owned several foreign cars. He bought a Bmw convertible and sold the saab to me. He had owned it for a while and assured me it was in good shape. After purchasing the car I have drove it very little,but here is what I can tell you about it. It has a 2.0 4 cylinder turbo motor and a 5-speed transmission. Motor is very quiet and tranny shifts perfect. Motor does not smoke and previous owner assured me it did not burn any oil. . The turbo gives this motor power through the shift range that thoroughly impressed this Ford and Chevy man. Previous owner put $600.00 worth of brakes and calipers on this car. I have the receipts where this was done in my home town. Car has a power top. Top is not perfect but is actually in nice shape with a minor tear or two. All glass is good including the convertible rear heated glass. Driver seat has rip in leather other seats are good. It has a power antenna. Original radio has been replaced with am/fm cd unit. very nice speaker sound. Dash has some cracks in it. Trunk floor has some minor rust,and there is some bubbling over rear wheel. This car runs smoothly down the road. There is no major vibration or darting in the front end. Tires are in good used shape. Here is what I know that I think you need to know. The front passenger side headlight bracket is broke. But light stays in place. All lights and signals work. car has twin electric fans. One fan is wired to run constantly which keeps motor cool. Car does not overheat. But is not supposed to work that way. Brakes have been replaced and so have calipers ,but they need adjusted. After car has been drove a while this goes away because the brakes heat up as they are supposed to and they work nicely. Air condition not blowing cool I assume it needs refrigerant. As I said I am very impressed with this car. This car is 27 years old and I would label it a survivor. Some one had to pull maintenance to have lasted this long. But I am and will mostly be a Ford and Chevy man. This car is sold as is no warranty. Shipping or pick-up will be your responsibility. Will answer all questions honestly. I have 100% positive feedback.

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.
Saab's never-was 9-3 gets a few better looks
Sat, 23 Mar 2013The recent glimpses we've been getting of the never-was Saab 9-3 Phoenix must be like rubbing salt on the wounds of all the Saab fans out there. If that's the case, diehard Saab enthusiasts might want to look away from this. SaabWorld has uncovered a handful of shots of what was to be the next-generation 9-3 hatchback, and boy does it look sharp.
Revealing a clearer look at what we previously saw in grainy images or as a full-scale model, these new pictures show what Jason Castriota had in mind for the new car. The front end is obviously inspired by Saab's Phoenix Concept, while the rear of the car pays homage to the Saab 900 hatchback.
We like the overall look. Let us know what you think in the Comments.
One-off 1997 Saab 900 EX prototype headed to auction
Sat, Sep 23 2023An obscure and fascinating part of Saab's history is looking for a new home. The one-off 1997 900 EX was built in Norway to celebrate the company's 50th birthday, and while it was not approved for production it shows what a sporty, 900-derived coupe could have looked like. British auction house Bonhams explains that Per Ekstrom, an auto body expert and enthusiast according to The Drive, worked closely with Saab and Norwegian road authorities to create the 900 EX. His goal wasn't merely to create an eye-catching coupe that's pretty to look at but impossible to drive; he wanted the model to be street-legal and drive like a regular-production car. The auction description notes that the 900 EX was built by experienced professionals with Saab's blessing and that the process required between 3,000 and 4,000 hours of work. The end result is stunning. While the headlights and the grille create a strong visual link between the EX and the second-generation 900, which enthusiasts often refer to as the GM900, the roof line has been lowered by nearly three inches and the body has been considerably widened thanks in part to 9000 CS-sourced front and rear wheel arches. We're told that the rear window comes from a 900 Cabriolet's soft top and that the hatch is a modified panel sourced from a standard 900, though pictures of the back end haven't been released as of writing. Bonhams describes the build quality as "exceptional" and says that the panel gaps are better than those seen on many modern cars. It adds that the red and gray paint (which is a tribute to the combination often seen on the 900 SPG) is original and "in close to perfect condition." The interior is largely standard 900 fare. There's wood trim, leather upholstery, a three-spoke steering wheel, and the big knobs and buttons that characterized Saab models for decades. The brand designed the switchgear so that it could be easily operated by someone wearing gloves. The odometer displays about 141,600 kilometers, which represents approximately 88,000 miles, though Bonhams pegs the engine's mileage at around 154,000 kilometers (roughly 95,600 miles). Most of the miles were reportedly added before engine ended up in the EX. Speaking of the engine, power comes from a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder sourced from Saab's regular-production parts bin and tuned to send 220 horsepower to the front wheels. It's bolted to a five-speed manual transmission.
