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 |

Rally legend Erik Carlsson dies at 86
Wed, May 27 2015The motorsports world has lost a legend with the passing of famous rally driver Erik Carlsson at the age of 86. If you've ever seen a photo of a vintage Saab sliding around a corner or blasting through tree-lined roads, there was a good chance that Carlsson was behind the wheel. The man was so tied to the Swedish auto brand that he earned the nickname Mr. Saab. Carlsson experienced his greatest competition success in the late '50s and early '60s when he scored victories in premier events like the Monte Carlo Rally (pictured above). Among his more impressive performances were consecutive wins in '60, '61, and '62 Britain's RAC Rally. His three-cylinder, 750cc Saab 96 wasn't insanely powerful, but Carlsson made it a monster in the world of rallying. In 2010, Saab named a special edition 9-3 after him and honored his victory at the RAC Club in London. Beyond being impressive behind the wheel of a rally car and a longtime Saab brand ambassador, the driver had a habit of rolling his car during competition to earn the moniker "Carlsson On The Roof." According to Classic and Sports Car, he also wrote the book The Art and Technique of Driving that detailed his left-foot braking method, and it was co-authored with his wife, fellow racing driver Pat Moss. Our condolences go out to Carlsson's friends and family.
National Electric Vehicle stops Saab 9-3 production amidst financing woes
Tue, 20 May 2014It seems that quirky, Swedish automaker Saab might be on life support yet again. Its owner, National Electric Vehicle Sweden, has announced that it's reducing its workforce and temporarily halting production of the 9-3 due to financial problems. NEVS was only building six cars a day, anyway.
The company put out a press release admitting its economic woes, but it still appeared hopeful. NEVS claims it's developing "a new platform on the Phoenix architecture," and it has a frame agreement with an international automotive OEM. It didn't give any specific details about either one of these assertions though. According to The Wall Street Journal, NEVS needs the partnership to lower development costs in order to stay afloat. Saab spokesperson Mikael Ostlund told Autoblog in an email that the stop in production of the 9-3 in Trollhättan would last four weeks.
NEVS says it's in negotiation to sell a portion of the company to an automotive company. Its current monetary woes are caused by shareholder Qingbo Investment Company not financing the company as agreed. "We plan to have the results of the discussions at latest during June," said Ostlund.
Spyker and Youngman sign deal, plan to build D8 SUV and Phoenix-based range
Mon, 27 Aug 2012It appears Spyker is strengthen its ties and carmaking ability with Chinese carmaker Youngman. This comes in the wake of the brand's latest dealings with a $3 billion lawsuit against General Motors regarding the demise of Saab.
Youngman is reportedly investing €10,000,000 ($12.5M USD) for a 29.9-percent stake in the company. The shares are being sold for €0.05 (6.3 cents) each, representing a fully diluted share. Youngman has said it will not take on more than the 29.9-percent stake.
Additionally, Youngman will invest €25,000,000 ($31M) for the development of an all-new Spyker vehicle, called the D8 P2P, named for the Peking-to-Paris rally. The vehicle had been shown as a concept by Spyker previously, but things had been quiet since then. It appears Spyker will now build the uniquely styled D8 Concept shown above. The vehicle is to launch at the end of 2014 and carry a price of $250,000 per vehicle.
