For sale is a 1988 Saab 9000 turbo automatic transmission, sunroof, power everything, heated seats. Rose quartz with oxbloox interior leather, even the dash is oxblood to match. It even has the original phone (obviously doesn't work, but perfect to make those red-light impressions for the people next to you, like you are calling back in time, or for those 80's inspired music videos...)
About the car: Full Option. Very clean inside and out. Transmission and brake issues. When accelerating from a stop the transmission slams into gear instead of a smooth shift, but when driving it shifts smooth. Only when accelerating from a stand still does it act up. 99% rust free!!!! The engine is running really good, revs and idles like its suppose to, turbo spools like it should. The good: New battery New radiator (saab) Newer distributor All mew vacuum hoses New spark plugs New timing chain, tensioner and guide (Saab) Good tires except one, needs 1 tire. Interior in great shape, no tears or rips in leather whatsoever New headliner New fuel pump and pre pump New turbo APC valve New turbo bypass valve (bosch newer style from porsche, stronger) New oil and air filters. Cleaned transmission filter. All headlight brackets are good! All lights work. All windows work and sunroof operates as it should. The bad: Needs transmission work ( still drives). The car still drives great, when at speed. It shift flawlessly during driving, however when at a stop or accelerating from a stop, it seems to not be in gear and only after pressing on the gas a bit, for a sec, it goes into gear and takes off. I believe it might be either a pressure issue, or the infamous governors. Needs brake pump replaced ( will provide a working one with the car) The abs light is on and the brake pedal is super stiff. Ac needs recharged but compressor is good A couple trim pieces broken ( rear left door window switch, side molding is about to start coming off on one side but not bad just need 3m double sided tape, fl door light is cracked, dome light needs to be pulled out, it is pushed in and not secured in place, but still works perfectly). Paint has a few dents a minor scratch Rear hatch needs new shocks. Sometimes the brake light switch acts up. when turning the car off the brake lights will stay on. Doesn't smoke, doesn't eat oil, doesn't sputter, compression tested all good, doesn't knock, no strange noises or secondary noises in the body when driving. Overall solid and one of the cleanest first gen 9000, definitely best condition for sale that I have seen in the Midwest region. Most of the Saabs in the Midwest die from rust..This is a rare opportunity to own a Saab in this nice of a cosmetic condition. This would be a great buy for a Saab collector or enthusiast like myself. Unfortunately I am running out of room and time with all my other Saabs. I hope this car finds a good home with a Saab guy or gal, as this car can bring another 10-15 years of care free enjoyment and admiration from fellow saab-o-philes. There is no rust on this vehicle at all!!! NO RUST ON THE OUTSIDE, INSIDE, OR BOTTOM OF VEHICLE! It has been garaged its whole life, even in my possession for the past year it has been only inside, never even seen rain! Need to make room for other projects. Have more than 1700 invested in the car with parts and labor. Please no spam or trades. Want cash for car. Clean title, no damage. Engine is perfectly running. I have receipts for parts and work done on the car in my possession. Comes with original paperwork, booklets and window sticker. deposit of 300 required 2 days after sale. I feel like i mentioned everything that I know about it. Feel free to contact me about any more info, specific pics, or questions you may have before bidding. The car comes with no warranty, as is. Come and test drive it! I can be reached by email or by phone at 1-515-770-2693 |

Son Surprises Mom With Dream Car
Thu, Aug 14 2014We 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
Autoblog sell-it-yourself highlight: 2004 Saab 9-5 Aero Wagon
Tue, Apr 25 2017Want to sell your car? We make it safe, easy and free. Quickly create listings with up to 6 photos. Reach - literally - millions of buyers. Log in and create your free listings. In a recent Autoblog sampling of 10 pre-owned choices at least 10 years old and selling for under $10K, an Autoblog editor gave a shout-out to Saab's 9-5. And who could blame him? Despite its departure from the US market and subsequent closure as an automaker, Saab's brand still resonates among a committed core of enthusiasts. The Saab 9-5, available in both sedan and wagon variants, was the upper model of a two-model lineup; the 9-3 sedan sat below it, while the GM-sourced 9-7 SUV didn't appear until 2005. Both the sedan and wagon 9-5 were surprisingly roomy, and the Aero variant, pictured here, incredibly fast. This for-sale example, located in North Carolina, is at 176,000 miles a well-used example in need of (at least) a repaint. But this is the perfect color combination, plus a combo of sport and utility. Buy it for around $2K, hold another $5,000 in reserve to cover the obvious needs, and you can enjoy a distinctive piece of practical and powerful transportation. Related Video:
Saab 900 SPG is the latest Petrolicious love story
Thu, 03 Oct 2013The latest video from the crew at Petrolicious covers one funky Swede - a 1989 Saab 900 SPG. Produced from 1978 to 1998, the 900 enjoyed a long history, and thanks to its iconic look, it's quickly becoming a modern classic for the off-kilter car enthusiast. The SPG, short for Special Performance Group, makes this a particularly rare find, with owner Jordan Melville saying, "I didn't even realize what I had at the time."
Melville gives a rundown of his life with the 900 and his passion for Saab overall, even reflecting on that dark day that saw the Swedish brand closed its doors. As always, the videography is excellent and the story is intriguing in this latest video from Petrolicious. You can view the entire video down below.
