HELLO! BEFORE YOU READ MY ENTIRE DESCRIPTION, PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO LOOK AT THE FOLLOWING 3 SAAB 900'S FOR SALE!!!! FROM $12,000 to $22,000!! If you are EXPECTING A CAR LIKE THAT YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY THAT!!!!!! 
ITEM # 380608401500 - ITEM # 140944669514 - ITEM # 190821012149
NOW, IF YOU ARE STILL READING, 
AND YOU DON'T WANT A $1,000-$2,000 MONEY PIT SAAB 900 THEN THIS IS THE CAR FOR YOU!!!!! RARE DESIRABLE 5 SPEED MANUAL!! THIS CAR SAYS 197,700 BUT ODOMETER ROLLED 5,500 MILES ON MY 2,700 TRIP!! SO I KNOW THAT REAL MILES ARE REALLY MUCH LESS, PERHAPS @ 100K. THE SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE, FUEL GAUGE AND CLOCK WORK AS THEY SHOULD!

I have no idea how long this has persisted - the previous owner described it rolling double miles as well. THIS WOULD EXPLAIN THE LOW AUTOCHECK SCORE - which I always take with a grain of salt!! I would much rather have a car that has recently had over $5,000.00 of FULLY DOCUMENTED REPAIRS!!! 

I HAVE ALL RECEIPTS!!!

AUTOCHECK DOES SHOW NO ACCIDENTS!! 

I am 47 years old and have owned over 20 of these classic 900 convertibles!!!!! My first was a 1983 TURBO in 1986 in college..... boy was I cutting edge!! I have owned my 2002 VIGGEN CONVERTIBLE FOR THE LAST DECADE AS MY DAILY DRIVER! (230hp and 32mpg highway). I LIVED IN EUROPE FOR 15 YEARS. I OWNED MY 2 FERRARI 348 SPIDERS AND HUMMER 1 CONVERTIBLES FOR 5 YEARS EACH! I HAVE 5 CHILDREN 4,6,8,10,12 WHICH KEEP ME VERY BUSY - I LOVE TO WORK ON EUROPEAN CARS AS A HOBBY TO SPEND PERSONAL TIME IN THE GARAGE TO KEEP MY SANITY!!!!! OUR MERCEDES 2000 ML55 NOT PICTURED IS THE AMG 7 SEAT FAMILY CAR for the last 10yrs. I HAVE A PASSION FOR GREAT CARS AT GREAT PRICES, Unfortunately I paid the entire $70,000 for the ML55!! BUT FERRARI'S AT 60K OR SAAB'S AT UNDER 7K are much better buys. This 1990 WAS $33,000 NEW and still N.A.D.A. books at $8,850 or even $6,275 at average retail. 

THIS IS NOT AN AVERAGE EXAMPLE!!!!! 

NOW THE STORY ON THIS FANTASTIC 

214H - CHERRY RED 1990 TURBO CONVERTIBLE!!

I LOVE TO FLY OUT, BUY CARS AND MAKE A ROAD TRIP ESCAPE OF IT! AGAIN, A SANITY ISSUE AFTER TRAVELING THE WORLD FOR 17 YEARS!!! (IN THIS CASE 2,700 MILES FROM PHILADELPHIA, PA TO UTAH). THE PICTURES ARE AT THE WASHINGTON D.C. TEMPLE (TO VISIT INSIDE WAS THE UNDERLYING PURPOSE OF THIS VISIT) OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS AND JUST OUTSIDE OF VAIL, COLORADO. A GREAT JANUARY 600 MILES OF IT IN EAST COAST BLIZZARD CONDITIONS DRIVE!!

GAS MILEAGE WAS 28-29mpg AT TIMES AND ABOUT 25mpg WHEN DOING 90-100MPH. 

THE PREVIOUS OWNERS USED 10W40 MOBIL ONE FULL    SYNTHETIC OIL BOSCH OIL FILTER AND IT WAS CHANGED RIGHT BEFORE I DROVE THE 2,700 MILES HOME. IT WAS CHANGED LAST WEEK WITH THE SAME 10W40 MOBIL ONE FULL SYNTHETIC!!!!

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK ON ALL SPEEDS, squirters stopped working on trip home, I KNOW the LITTLE pump works, could be that the control arm on steering column is the culprit? The antenna ONLY raises and lowers by hand BUT WORKS PERFECTLY! The 2 front seats move manually and ARE NOT ELECTRIC! The extra modules on the dash are NOT my personal favorite - I LOVE FACTORY ORIGINAL - BUT can be removed easily! They are completely functional and give air/fuel mixture readings, voltage metering and PSI turbo boost readings. 

PLEASE NOTICE THE EXTREMELY CLEAN UNDER CARRIAGE! NO RUST! 

After the car has been sitting for a while, there are small drops of engine oil and power steering fluid - very reminiscent of my 35yr old Harley Davidson. Cosmetic - NO NEED to check fluid levels as there is NO OIL USAGE OR BURNING while driving!!! THAT SHOULD BE EVERYTHING!!

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.

Junkyard Gem: 1983 Saab 900 Turbo 4-Door Hatchback

Sun, Mar 20 2022

I've been finding quite a few interesting Saabs in Colorado car graveyards lately, including a 96 and a 99 (sadly, a discarded example of a Saab 92 has eluded me — at least in the United States — so far), and now it's the turn of the factory-hot-rod Saab that gave car shoppers more horsepower per dollar than anything they could buy from Germany at the time: the 900 Turbo. I found this car a few weeks back in a yard just south of Denver. Saab sold the original version of the 900 in the United States for the 1979 through 1993 model years (after that, the 900 name went on a car based on the Opel Vectra and closely related to the Saturn L-Series), and the early 900s looked very much like their 99 ancestors. Saab was an early adopter of turbocharging, and so the 900 Turbo was available here for the entire 1979-1993 sales run. This engine, a 2-liter slant-four derived from a 1960s Triumph design (and first cousin to the engine used in the Triumph TR7), was rated at 135 horsepower in 1983. That was big power for a small car in the Late Malaise Era, and it gave the 1983 Saab 900 Turbo a power-to-weight ratio similar to what you got in the Mitsubishi Starion and Porsche 944 that year. Electronic fuel injection finally made turbocharging work well for everyday driving (though the Maserati Biturbo stuck with blow-throw Weber carburetors all the way through 1986 in the United States), and it wasn't long before TURBO became a magical word. Yes, by 1984 you had Ozone and Turbo break-dancing while Ice-T makes his film debut. A few years earlier, with the (carbureted) Turbo Trans Am's not-so-stellar reliability on display, Boogaloo Shrimp's character would have been assigned a different name. Though it's possible, based on the fact that at least one 1980s boombox was built from a Saab 900 dash, that Turbo's name was inspired by Saab. Saab should get credit for doing so much to push turbocharging into the daily-driver mainstream. You could get a three-speed Borg-Warner automatic transmission in your new 1983 Saab 900, but it added 370 bucks (about $1,075 in 2022 dollars) to the cost of the car and made it much less fun to drive. This one has the 5-speed manual; I assume the E next to fifth gear stands for "efficiency." The five-door 900 Turbo listed at $16,910 with five-speed manual, which comes to about $49,055 today. A new BMW 528e cost $23,985 that year ($69,580 now) and offered just 121 horsepower.

Court extends Saab reorganization bid until end of November

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

Saab 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.
