Up for Bidding is my 2008 Saab 9-3.
This has been a great car but I bought a new one and need the garage space. I bought this car with about 40k on it and it has been my daily driver for the last coupIe years. I made a few upgrades to the car over the years. I've detailed them below.
MPG is amazing. You get the best of both worlds, it's a small engine with huge power from the Tune. I only drive in heavy traffic in the city and I average 19-20 mpg, on the highway it does 30+. Comes with 2 Keys.

No Reserve

Condition :

1. There are multiple chips on the front bumper, and 1 chip on the rear bumper. The back left door has a small ding/chip in the paint as well. I tried to take pictures to show them.
2. Mechanically the car is good with no known issues. It drives like a dream.
3. The right rear tire is almost new, less than a few thousand miles on it. The other 3 will need to be changed within the next 10,000 miles.

I always serviced according to the manual and did everything required. A full service was done at 60,000 miles.

Recently serviced (Within the last 2000 miles):

1. New battery (with warranty from advanced auto parts)
2. New AC compressor (from Auto zone)
3. Brand new fuel pump 

Upgrades:

Sound system -
1. Rockford Fosgate 1000 Watt Amp
2. Rockford Fosgate 12" HE2 subwoofer
2. Very nice 12" Bassworx Reference Speaker Enclosure.

Performance:
1. Maptun stage 1 Tune. It cost $1200, but this is the best thing i've ever done to a car. Maptun claims 250 HP and i have to say I think it's accurate. Gives you amazing performance and you still great gas mileage. It also works as a diagnosis tool and will let your read error codes from the OBD. You can switch between modes performance tune, factory tune, eco tune, etc. Please note - you must run 91+ octane on the tune. If you want to run on cheap gas you have to de-program, which is just a few button clicks.
2. K&N air filter - better air flow and let's you hear the turbo spool.
3. Akebono dustless brake pads on all 4 wheels.

1999 Saab 9-3 Viggen is a Swede worth remembering on MotorWeek

Sun, Aug 30 2015

Today, Saab survives in name only after a protracted series of bankruptcies and attempted comebacks with new owners. At the turn of the millennium, however, the brand was still able to make some great cars, though. MotorWeek is showing off one of its very best in this vintage review for the 1999 9-3 Viggen. The jet-inspired Viggen was the pinnacle of everything Saab's engineers could do at the time. Starting with the standard 9-3, the suspension was hunkered down to improve handling and lower bodywork was added for better aerodynamics. Now that the exterior looked the part, the 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder was tweaked to make 225 horsepower and 252 pound-feet of torque. While that output may not sound hugely impressive by modern standards, those were strong numbers in the day, and the following model year made even more power. After some time behind the wheel of the VIggen, MotorWeek came away quite impressed with this Swede. While the Viggen might not have offered the full capability of high-performance, European contemporaries like the BMW M3, Saab really showed its strengths with this model.

New owners still struggling to secure rights to use Saab name

Wed, 27 Jun 2012

Not to state the obvious, but if you're going to buy an automaker, it's probably advisable to secure rights to use the name.
That's what the new owners of Saab are trying to work out after buying the iconic Swedish automaker earlier this month, Automotive News reports.
National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS), the Chinese-Japanese conglomerate, acquired the company's physical assets, including its factory in Trollhättan, but didn't get rights to use the Saab name and logo. Truckmaker Scania and defense company Saab AB maintain the name and logo rights, and will need to sign off on NEVS using it, according to the publication. The parties are in discussions.

3 former Saab execs charged with tax evasion

Mon, 20 May 2013

The Associated Press reports three former Saab executives have been arrested on charges of accounting fraud. Swedish prosecutor Olof Sahlgren has refused to identify the individuals, but says they're suspected of attempting to evade taxes by falsifying Saab accounts between 2010 and 2011 during the Spyker years. Other reports indicate the parties involved include former General Counsel to Saab Kristina Geers (seen to the left of former CEO Victor Muller, above), a 15-year-veteran of the company - her husband, Eric, was the company's communications director for 9 years as well.
Saab filed for bankruptcy in 2011, and was purchased shortly thereafter by National Electric Vehicle Sweden. If convicted, the trio could face up to four years in prison for their crimes under Swedish law.
