 Up for Auction is an absolutely gorgeous 1988 Saab 900 Turbo Convertible.  I am the 2nd owner of this car, and I have only owned it for 3 months.  The original owner owned the car until I bought it from a car dealer.  The full vehicle history report goes with the car, and it is perfect.  No accidents, no liens, no blemishes.  This car is fantastic.  It was my lifelong dream car, and I bought it in the hope of keeping it for weekend driving.  What I've discovered is that the car is too pristine for me to drive.  It really should go to a collector or investor.  This car is only going to appreciate in value.  I currently have the car registered as an antique in PA. 

 

It is clearly evident from the condition that the car was always garaged.  It is loaded with all of the options that were available in 1988.  Everything works as it should.  I have all the original books and manuals even the Radio code card.  The car is immaculate.  It was always Garaged and it shows!  It runs and drives as you would expect a 49,000 mile car to run...like it is brand new!  The top goes up and down effortlessly.  All the windows and electrical items work fine.  It is all Original.  The tires are in great shape with lots of tread remaining.  The original radio works as well as the factory equalizer.   Even the Power Antenna Works!  The leather seats are in great shape for the age of the car with very little wear on them.  It is truly a pleasure to drive.  I honestly wish it wasn't in such great shape, so I wouldn't feel guilty driving it.

 

Being a 25 year old car it is not perfect.  It does have a few little things that could be fixed.  The glove box door has a applique on it that is starting to peel on the edge.  The material on the drivers door panel insert has become unglued in places in is a bit loose.  The windshield has a tiny crack (less than 1 inch ) from a rock hitting it.  The front cover on the ashtray has come off.  The top which I believe to be original has three little wear holes from going up and down.  It is not ripped and is still in good condition but has these spots that are worn.   ( See Pictures for all these issues).  The speakers for the radio crackle a bit sometimes but the radio plays and sounds fine.     There are a few small door dings and maybe some very small scratches that are not really noticeable.  These is a small piece of molding on the left side front bumper extension that is missing.   Thats about it.  It is truly a time capsule in excellent condition!  It even still has the Factory Bosch Fog lights under the front bumper!!  

 

 If you are in the Lancaster, PA area and would like to see and drive this Beautiful Saab Convertible feel free to call me at 717-903-4142.   I will assist in Shipping or Pickup arrangements anyway I can.   A $500.00 dollar deposit Via paypal is due within 24 hours of the auction end.  

 

Please understand that this is an "as is, where is" sale, and no warranty is stated or implied in anyway.  That said, I personally would have all the confidence in the world getting in the car and driving across the country! 

 

Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!

GM recalling 316k vehicles due to headlamp faults

Mon, Dec 1 2014

General Motors has announced a recall covering 316,357 vehicles globally, due to the possibility of sporadic or permanent failure of the low-beam headlamps. 273,182 of these vehicles are in the United States, while the remaining affected units are in Canada, Mexico, and elsewhere. This recall includes the 2006-09 Buick LaCrosse (pictured above), 2006-07 Chevy TrailBlazer and TrailBlazer EXT, 2006-07 GMC Envoy and 2006 GMC Envoy XL, 2006-07 Buick Rainier, 2006-08 Saab 9-7X, and 2006-08 Isuzu Ascender. In an email sent to Autoblog, General Motors explains that if the headlamp driver modules are not functioning correctly, "the low-beam headlamps and daytime running lamps could intermittently or permanently fail to illuminate." GM states that this problem does not affect things like high-beams, turn signals, marker lamps, or foglamps. As of this writing, GM states it "has not been able to confirm whether the HDMs in these vehicles caused any vehicle accidents." The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been notified, but the recall has not yet posted to the government agency's website. Scroll down to read the full details in GM's email.

New owners of Saab don't get to use the name

Tue, Feb 2 2016

Saab won't be revived as a Chinese-backed electric car brand. Aerospace and defense company Saab AB has declined to let the new owners of the dormant automaker's old designs and factory use the name on new cars, Automotive News reports. It's a blow to fans of the Swedish brand, who hoped the name would be revived on new vehicles coming out of the same factory as models like the 99 Turbo. National Electric Vehicle Sweden, known as NEVS, bought major assets of the Saab operation in 2012 following former parent Spyker's decision to liquidate the company in December 2011. This not only included the Trollhattan assembly plant in Sweden, but the rights to the Saab 9-3 and the platform of its successor. NEVS built some new 9-3s using leftover parts and powered by the old 2.0-liter turbo engines, with the intent to raise money to produce new electric vehicles for Europe and China – and to use the Saab name. When General Motors bought all of Saab Automobile in 2000, it used the name under license from the Saab AB. That permission was then passed to Spyker in 2010 and later NEVS, albeit without the griffin logo. But when NEVS sought creditor protection in 2014, Saab AB revoked the naming rights. Following reorganization, NEVS in August announced a deal with Dongfeng Motor Corp. to develop a new lineup of electric vehicles, which was revealed in December to include five new models by 2018, some assembled in China by 2020 – the first of which being an EV version of the old 9-3. However, Saab AB told Automotive News that discussions have ended regarding the use of the Saab name on these vehicles. NEVS owner Kai Johan Jiang told a Swedish radio station the company will find a new name to market the cars under when they go on sale. It's similar to what happened to SAIC when it purchased vehicle technology from bankrupt British carmaker MG Rover. While it had the tooling to essentially make the Rover 75, the brand name at the time belonged to BMW and barred SAIC from using it, so the Roewe brand was created in China. It's unclear why talks broke down and also where NEVS will get a new name (there aren't nicer ways to spell Saab, and it was originally an acronym, anyway). Will Saab AB attach its name to another line of cars? Probably not. What it does mean, however, is that Saab fans have to cling tighter to their old cars now. Perhaps that's for the best.

Son Surprises Mom With Dream Car

Thu, Aug 14 2014

We can't get enough of these dream car-reveals. Here's the latest one: A son wanted to treat his mom to the car she's had her eye on for years, but it wasn't a restored Porsche or a fancy 1957 Chevy Bel Air. This mom wanted something special – a 1973 Saab 99 EMS painted disco-fever copper. Ever since he was a kid, Corey Wadden's mom has wanted the Saab. Wadden writes on his YouTube video that she first hopped in the driver's seat of one of these odd retro rides while working as a cleaning lady. One of her clients would toss her the keys and let her move the car. She fell in love. After a year of searching and saving, this nominee for best son in the world brought his mom down to the parking lot, where her dream ride awaited. First, he handed her an envelope with a picture of the car and the keys, a dead giveaway. She quickly put two and two together, and lost it before making it to the parking lot. She is so happy and full of gratitude that she actually drops to her knees when he opens the door. Wadden writes on his page that his mom lost her job two-and-a-half years ago and hasn't had a reliable car in years. This car aims not just to get her mobile again, but lift her spirits. It's also part of the Toronto entrepreneur's promise to become a millionaire by the time he is 25 to help his mother retire. Related Gallery The Best Cars For Empty Nesters Weird Car News Saab
