Selling my 2008 Saab 9-3 2.0 Turbo.  This is a handyman special as there is damage to the driver side rear passenger door, quarter panel, and tail light.   The good news is that I have purchased a replacement door, quarter panel, and tail light for you to install that come with the vehicle in the matching red color (See Pictures).   There are some scratches on the bumper where the quarter panel meets but the bumper does not need to be replaced.  There is also a couple of small dents that could be popped out on the passenger side of the car.  Car comes with a clean title.  (Not Salvage)   The damage occurred a few years ago when a UPS truck swiped it when it was parked on the street.  Rather than claiming it to the insurance company UPS cut the previous owner a check on the spot.  There is no damage to the frame.  The car as actually been driven as is since the incident with no issues to report what so ever.  Car also comes with an extra set of 16 inch rims.  There is nothing wrong with the car mechanically. 

I acquired this vehicle from a friend on compensation for some debt that was owed to me.  I had all intentions of fixing it up and keeping it as a gas saver and second vehicle but I decided to try to sell it because I could use the cash for some other projects.  I also do not know of any mechanics where I can get a fair deal to fix it.  Had it quoted at a local body shop that charges an outrageous amount per hour and they said they could fix it for around $2,000.   This is an ideal project car if you can do it yourself or know a cheap collision repair specialist.    As mentioned before the parts are in the original color which was lucky of my to find.  So as far as paint is concerned there will only have to be blending.

Saab's Victor Muller wanted to nix Griffin, return to airplane emblem

Tue, 09 Oct 2012

According to Just-Auto.com Victor Muller wasn't a fan of the Saab Griffin logo. The executive was quoted as saying he wanted to "abolish" the Griffin logo and return to the airplane emblem. Muller made it clear that if he'd had his way, the propeller would have replaced the Griffin across the Saab lineup long ago.
National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the company that recently bought Saab, was forced to abandon the Griffin logo due to the fact that the emblem is still used by truck manufacturer Scania. The manufacturer is reportedly concerned about potential Chinese counterfeiting - NEVS is owned by Youngman, a Chinese automaker - though it's unclear how that relationship would lead to illegal copies.
Either way, NEVS has said the loss of the Griffin logo isn't that important to the company so long as it can continue to build on the Saab name. Muller, meanwhile, said he wishes NEVS luck in the company's electric-vehicle endeavor, but that he doesn't understand its new business model.

Son Surprises Mom With Dream Car

Thu, Aug 14 2014

We 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

Spyker to appeal dismissal of Saab lawsuit against GM

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

It seems as if Spyker CEO Victor Muller has made a decision on whether or not to pursue a legal battle between his company and General Motors. Spyker has announced it will appeal a US District Court decision to throw out the company's lawsuit against GM. As you may recall, on June 10 Judge Gershwin Drain ruled tht GM had a right to approve or disapprove Spyker's sale of Saab to Zhejiang Youngman Lotus Automobile. Spyker sued GM for some $3 billion, claiming that the American automaker had forced Saab into bankruptcy by stopping Spyker from transferring intellectual property to its Chinese partner.
Spyker has said only that it plans to appeal the decision. Until now, the company has been silent about the ruling. GM, meanwhile, has said it is pleased with the original outcome. You can read the quick Spyker press release below for more information.
