Saab 9 5, 9-5, 2000, Great Driving Car That Still Looks Good, No Reserve! on 2040-cars
Granville, Massachusetts, United States
This has been a very good car for us over the past few years, I have put 50k miles on it and it has never let me down. Previous to that it was owned by my cousin, who also had great service from this car. It's a reliable car that drives well and looks good. Recently replaced the complete exhaust turbo back, so there should be no issues for the life of the car. CT Emissions good until 11/15.
Clear coat peeling on hood and cracked paint/bondo on passenger front fender (have another fender that you can have if you want to do the paint work), otherwise very very nice body for the age and mileage, door dents and scratches are minimal. Black/charcoal leather interior is in great shape. It does have a check engine light for a P0171 code that I haven't gotten off, but does not effect drivability. Also has an intermittent key issue that requires a button press to bypass, have the parts to provide just hasn't been bothersome enough to replace, and the usual dropped pixels in the display. We've replaced it with a 2005 Saab. Once you've owned Saabs, we're a multiple Saab family, you'll understand that these really are exceptional cars for the money. Our last trip in the car before we moved on to the newer car was well over 500 miles round trip. Never thought twice about taking this car. AC works great, tires are good, suspension is all there, get in it and drive it, see if you can figure out what the life expectancy is, our previous Saab went over 300k. Small issues aside it's a great car for the money. Wouldn't hesitate to take it on any road trip, 26mpg, quick, comfortable. Can be seen in Granville, MA. |

Want one of the last Saab 9-3s ever built? Here's your chance
Fri, Jun 7 2019National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS) purchased the assets of bankrupt Swedish automaker Saab in 2012. The next year, NEVS restarted production of the 9-3 sedan that lasted until 2014. In December 2013, the company pulled a silver 9-3 Aero Turbo from its pool of customer cars, intended for crash testing. The crash test never happened, and that silver sedan hung out at the factory for six years. Autocar writes that NEVS wants to find that Saab a good home, and will put it up for auction later this year. The model has a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder with 217 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, shifted through a six-speed manual transmission. Other than the fact it's spent six years holed up in a Swedish factory, the condition is brand new - there are only 3.1 miles on the odometer. It's hard to predict what such a time capsule might go for. NEVS only built 420 units before ceasing production, so the 2013 9-3 Aero Turbo has rarity on its side. This isn't the only such Saab to roll out of the crypt recently, though. In 2017, a 2014 9-3 Aero popped up in the Netherlands with only 211 miles on the odo. In 2018, a 2011 diesel 9-3 SportCombi wagon with 56 miles on the odo broke through the space-time continuum in Italy. NEVS will put its 9-3 on display in Trollhattan this weekend during the annual Saab Car Museum Festival.
NEV deal to buy Saab delayed
Fri, 03 Aug 2012Remember a month and a half ago when we told you that Saab will "soldier on?" Well, we should have written "stand at attention."
According to SaabsUnited, the deal for National Electric Vehicle Sweden to buy the remaining Saab assets didn't close on schedule. In fact, it's been delayed by "a month, perhaps more." NEVS also seems to have indicated that it's not going to be answering any more questions about the deal until it's completed.
NEVS is supposedly planning on building electric cars based on the design that would have been the next-generation 9-3. The company itself is a partnership between a Chinese energy company and a Japanese investment group.
Junkyard Gem: 1988 Saab 900
Tue, Nov 29 2016Saab had a cult following in North America going back to the two-stroke Saab 96, but it wasn't until the 900 made its debut for the 1978 model year that the marque started to be considered a mainstream – if still a bit odd – brand here. Based on the venerable 99 but seeming a lot more modern, the 900 sold well to those who wanted to drive something sensibly Scandinavian but didn't want the stodginess of a Volvo. These cars were especially popular in Colorado, and I found this high-mile-but-solid '88 in a Denver self-service wrecking yard. Nearly made it to 300,000 miles, but it never got the chance. The key is still in the console-mounted ignition switch, and the steel lanyard indicates that this car went to the wrecking yard via an insurance-company or dealership-trade-in auction. Since the car has no major body damage, that means that its final owner traded it in – reluctantly, we hope – on another car, and nobody was willing to bid over scrap value for the elderly Swede at auction. Most such auctions have an arrangement with a local wrecking yard to take all the unsold cars for a set price, and that's what we can assume happened to this car. Chances are that it was still in running condition when it showed up here. You could get a 1988 Saab 900 with a three-speed Borg-Warner automatic transmission, but I can't recall having ever seen one so equipped. Most Saab 900 buyers insisted on manuals. The engine in this car is a slant-four based on the same Triumph engine used in the Triumph TR7. By the 1980s, Saab had made sufficient improvements to the design that it was several orders of magnitude more reliable than its British Leyland ancestors. This one made 110 horses, which did an acceptable job of moving the car's 2,695 pounds. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
