 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!!

NEVS to build new Saab models in China's Qingdao

Thu, 10 Jan 2013

National Electric Vehicle Sweden has officially signed a deal with Qingdao Qingbo Investment Company that will see the NEVS build EVs in Qingdao, China. The move is the first step on the road toward eventually selling vehicles in China. Reuters reports that the Chinese company has agreed to invest $307.33 million, after which point Qingdao Qingbo will receive 22 percent of the NEVS shares. Currently, there's no word on exactly when the funds and shares will change hands, but the Swedish automaker has previously said it fully intends to launch its first EV by early 2014.
NEVS has also made waves about potentially building a version of the old Saab 9-3 with a traditional internal combustion driveline. Currently, the manufacturer says it plans to ship the vehicles it builds in Sweden to the Qingdao port and distribute them to the rest of China from there. Later down the line, a manufacturing facility in Qingdao will supply the country with Chinese-built Saab models.

Spyker to appeal dismissal of Saab lawsuit against GM

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

It seems as if Spyker CEO Victor Muller has made a decision on whether or not to pursue a legal battle between his company and General Motors. Spyker has announced it will appeal a US District Court decision to throw out the company's lawsuit against GM. As you may recall, on June 10 Judge Gershwin Drain ruled tht GM had a right to approve or disapprove Spyker's sale of Saab to Zhejiang Youngman Lotus Automobile. Spyker sued GM for some $3 billion, claiming that the American automaker had forced Saab into bankruptcy by stopping Spyker from transferring intellectual property to its Chinese partner.
Spyker has said only that it plans to appeal the decision. Until now, the company has been silent about the ruling. GM, meanwhile, has said it is pleased with the original outcome. You can read the quick Spyker press release below for more information.

First test drive shows promise of Saab 9-3 EV

Tue, Sep 16 2014

We can't read Swedish, so when it comes to a first-drive review of a Saab 9-3 electric-vehicle prototype, we'll trust Inside EVs' translation of a write-up from Swedish automotive publication Elbilen i Sverige. And it's a decent one. The write-up, that is. The translation, too, we hope. Taken to the test track, the Saab was found to be quieter than a Tesla Model S and had the stability commensurate for a car that tipped the scales at about 4,000 pounds. The sedan accelerated from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 10 seconds, though the goal is to bring that time down to 8.5 seconds. The prototype also uses a 37-kWh prototype battery made by China-based Kai Johan Jiang Annual National Modern Energy Holdings that should be good for over 180 miles (and there's room for a bigger pack in the car, apparently). The 9-3's electric motor will be able to deliver 200 horsepower but, for testing purposes, it was limited to about 140 horsepower. The overall impression was that the car is not yet ready for prime time, but has a lot of promise. When prototype becomes production is the real question, given the financial condition of Saab parent National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS). The company acquired the brand in 2012 and started making cars at Saab's Trollhattan plant in Sweden last year, but production stopped in May because of cash-flow issues. Late last month, Swedish courts denied NEVS protection from its creditors, so the company is now looking to restructure.
