I'm selling my 1994 Saab 900 Turbo Convertible. Very good condition. It's been my weekend beach cruiser for the last 2 years. Garage kept. Car drives and handles great - the whir of the Turbo is intoxicating, and urges you to accelerate so you can hear it as often as possible. I purchased the car just over 2 years ago, and have only put about 2k miles on it since. When I bought it I had the front brakes/rotors replaced, as well as the ignition (car now starts in neutral rather than having to start it in reverse gear). Time to make room for other toys in my garage. This was the last year for the 900 Turbo Convertible before the body style changed and is the fully loaded Commemorative Edition - MSRP when new was over $42k!!! Stereo is an aftermarket Sony Xplod CD player with an Aux cable input to play your iPod or MP3 player. Sounds great. Heated Driver's seat, power seats, power mirrors, power locks and power convertible top all work great. A/C, cruise control, washer spray,headlight wipers and rear defrost are not working but components are present. Does not have the original fog lights. The convertible top has some repairs to it, but does not leak. Dash is free of any cracks or damage. All glass is original and in great shape. Driver's side seat has some typical wear on the side bolster - other than that, the leather seats look amazing. Original alloy wheels have some pitting, dings and scratches typical of a 20 year old vehicle. The paint on the hood is faded slightly, as is the front emblem. Paint on the sides and trunk looks very good. There is rust on the driver's side door jam, in the usual place for these older saabs. The previous owner lived on the ocean, so there is surface rust on the trim pieces and on the chrome parts - like the seat belts. Tires are Kumho in the front with about 30% tread remaining, Michelins in the rear with about 20% tread remaining. Overall, a great daily driver, weekend tourer or an easy project car to restore to it's original condition. Incredible low, original miles! Please ask any questions before bidding - your bid is a contract, so please only bid if you are willing to purchase the vehicle. $500 non-refundable deposit via paypal due within 24 hours of the end of the auction. Remaining balance due within 7 days after close - cash, or certified funds only, personal checks must clear my bank before vehicle will be released. Clear Florida title in hand. Shipping is the responsibility of the Buyer. Car is being sold as is, where is - with no warranty stated or implied.

Junkyard Gem: 1989 Saab 900 Turbo Convertible
Fri, Oct 14 2022I live in Colorado, where Saabs were loved deeply by residents going way back to the 96 (and I'm sure a few 92s were sold here in the 1950s, though I haven't found any in local car graveyards … yet). By far the easiest pre-GM Trollhattanites to find in Centennial State wrecking yards these days are the 1978-1993 900s, and I walk by a half-dozen for each one that I document as a Junkyard Gem. We admired a gloriously brown 900 Turbo two-door a few months back, but today's 900 Turbo is an extremely rare cabriolet version, the first I've found in a boneyard in at least 15 years. The convertible 900 was available only as a turbocharged version in the United States when it was introduced for the 1986 model year, and that continued through 1991. After that, a naturally-aspirated 900 convertible could be bought here. When in very nice condition, these cars can bring tidy sums. A super-low-mile '87 900 Turbo convertible just sold for $145,000 recently, in fact. This car has more than 843 times as many miles on the odometer as that car, however, and it shows every one of them. It's not terribly rusty, considering, but the sheet metal shows many battle scars, and the interior is about what you'd expect with 33-year-old leather. Last year's film adaptation of Haruki Murakami's short story, "Drive My Car," put the Saab 900 Turbo back into mainstream cultural awareness. However, that car is a two-door sedan; the best-known Saab 900 Turbo Convertible in cinema history is the one driven by Iben Hjelje's character in the film adaptation of the Nick Hornby novel, "High Fidelity." These cars were fairly quick for their time, with 160 horsepower from this DOHC 2.0-liter straight-four in 1989. Having seen more than my share of 900 Turbos going up against same-era BMW E30s and Acura Integras on road courses, I'd put my money on the Saab in a wheel-to-wheel race (that is, in a race short enough to keep the Swede's nervous engine alive). While a three-speed automatic was available on this car, the kind of Americans odd enough to buy Saabs in 1989 also tended to be the type that wanted manual transmissions. In fact, I can't recall ever seeing a (non-Opel-based) 900 with a slushbox. Yes, Opel! Starting in the 1994 model year, the 900 name went on a car based on the Opel Vectra platform. Later on, the Saab 9-5 and Saturn L-Series lived on the same chassis. Given all the luxury features and genuine performance, this car was a pretty good value for the price in 1989.
GM denies Spyker claims in $3B Saab lawsuit
Tue, 02 Oct 2012Reuters 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.
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.
