I am selling my 2003 Saab 9-3 in to benefit a charity
that I support.
The Charity Shoe4Africa is a 501c3 charity that supports many effective health and education programs in eastern Africa and is currently tackling our most ambitious project to date; building the first public pediatric hospital in sub-Saharan Africa. This project seeks to address the woefully deficient basic health care needs in a region that is vastly underserved:
Groundbreaking on the hospital has begun and the process of raising money to pay for the construction and hospital equipment continues. If you are moved to help us and need a car, please read on! The Car 2003 Saab 9-3 (ARC) with 108K miles. The car is well equipped with amenities (6 disk CD changer, moon roof, power heated leather seats etc) and is in very good shape. There are a few minor scratches in the paint as you would expect with a 10 year old car but it looks good and drives well. I am the original owner (and have a clean title) and have taken good care of the car performing all scheduled maintenance and oil changes. The only know defects are:
Other than these two minor items, the car is fun to drive and gets good mileage. The car currently has the winter tires and rims installed. Also included are a set of alloy rims and tires in good condition, and the Thule roof rack system with bicycle rails and a Thule SportRack Roof Box. Why am I selling the car When I moved back to NYC a few years ago, it quickly became obvious that I really do not need a car any longer. NYC has excellent public transportation and bicycle infrastructure that makes getting around without a car quite convenient and easy. As a result, the car spends most of its time in a garage and is driven only a few times per month. While it is nice to have a car for the convenience, I am aware that it is an extravagance that is unnecessary. At the same time I enjoy the convenience of having my Saab, I support a charity that is building a pediatric hospital for those who have zero access to health care. I have come to realize that my convenience is considerably less important than the basic needs of children in eastern Africa. It is with this thought that I am donating my car to help fund the hospital. 100% of the purchase price of this car will go directly to the charity. |

Rare 9-5 SportCombi, 9-4X models being sold off in Saab asset auction
Mon, 03 Dec 2012Saab lovers take notice. Swedish auction house KVD has some ultra rare Saab products on the block, and we're not talking about a 1950s Saab 92. Up for auction are a bunch of low-mileage Saab models being sold off as part of the bankrupted automaker's assets. Included in the lot of cars are models like the 2012 9-5 SportCombi (above), the 2012 9-4X (shown below) and even a 9-5 sedan driven by Victor Muller himself.
Discovered by PistonHeads, this Saab auction has numerous 9-5 SportCombi and 9-4X models, which should prove to be very rare cars. Only a small number of 9-4Xs were ever sold, and Saab closed up shop before the 9-5 SportCombi could even go on sale here. In addition to the rarity, many of the cars have fewer than 10 miles on their odometers and seemingly low reserve prices; a 9-4X 3.0 XWD Premium with just six miles has a current bid of 180,000 Swedish Krona (just over $27,000 USD) that has already met the reserve price. Some of the cars still have the protective factory shipping tape covering up the interior and exterior.
Other than the rare SportCombis and 9-4Xs being auctioned off, there's also a sharp 2012 9-3 Cabriolet with 11 miles on the clock and a V8-powered 2006 Saab 9-7X with just 3,003 miles.
NEVS to build new Saab models in China's Qingdao
Thu, 10 Jan 2013National 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.
Boeing, Saab introduce entry for T-X trainer program
Thu, Sep 15 2016This post is appearing on Autoblog Military, Autoblog's sub-site dedicated to the vehicles, aircraft, and ships of the world's armed forces. Boeing and Saab revealed their entry for the US military's T-X trainer replacement program. The new jet, simply called T-X, is like the lovechild of a F/A-18 Hornet and an F-16 Falcon, and as Boeing tells it, will provide "performance, affordability, and maintainability advantages" over the competition. "Our T-X is real, ready and the right choice for training pilots for generations to come," Leanne Caret, Boeing Defense, Space, and Security's President and CEO said in an official statement. And Caret isn't not kidding about the Boeing T-X being both real and ready – Boeing is so confident that it built two examples before the official unveiling on Tuesday. The first jet, which Defense News reports will fly by the end of the year, debuted to media with the kind of pomp usually reserved for automotive debuts. Boeing/Saab will use the second jet – also featured on Tuesday – for structural proof testing. The needs of a training aircraft are quite different than those of a traditional fighter. The T-X features stadium-style seating, so the instructor riding in back has nearly as good a view as the student in front. Student evaluations should be easy, too, as the open software transmits data effortlessly between ground training systems and the jet itself. Functionally, Boeing claims the twin-tail layout provides more agility than a single-tail design – remember, the military's newest jets, the F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightning II both use twin-tail layouts – while the Air Force can mount two weapon hard points on the jet's wings. According to Defense News, four manufacturers – Boeing/Saab, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin/KAI, and Raytheon/Leonardo/CAE – are vying for the contract to build 350 new trainers to replace the Air Force's fleet of aging T-38 Talons.
