1987 Saab 900 Turbo 5-speed Convertible Power Top With Toneau Cover Very Nice!!! on 2040-cars
Wappapello, Missouri, United States
About this car . First thing I traded a ford truck and cash for this car. It belonged to a local business man in my town. I have always liked the looks of these cars. I have never owned a foreign car other than a Volkswagen. The owner has owned several foreign cars. He bought a Bmw convertible and sold the saab to me. He had owned it for a while and assured me it was in good shape. After purchasing the car I have drove it very little,but here is what I can tell you about it. It has a 2.0 4 cylinder turbo motor and a 5-speed transmission. Motor is very quiet and tranny shifts perfect. Motor does not smoke and previous owner assured me it did not burn any oil. . The turbo gives this motor power through the shift range that thoroughly impressed this Ford and Chevy man. Previous owner put $600.00 worth of brakes and calipers on this car. I have the receipts where this was done in my home town. Car has a power top. Top is not perfect but is actually in nice shape with a minor tear or two. All glass is good including the convertible rear heated glass. Driver seat has rip in leather other seats are good. It has a power antenna. Original radio has been replaced with am/fm cd unit. very nice speaker sound. Dash has some cracks in it. Trunk floor has some minor rust,and there is some bubbling over rear wheel. This car runs smoothly down the road. There is no major vibration or darting in the front end. Tires are in good used shape. Here is what I know that I think you need to know. The front passenger side headlight bracket is broke. But light stays in place. All lights and signals work. car has twin electric fans. One fan is wired to run constantly which keeps motor cool. Car does not overheat. But is not supposed to work that way. Brakes have been replaced and so have calipers ,but they need adjusted. After car has been drove a while this goes away because the brakes heat up as they are supposed to and they work nicely. Air condition not blowing cool I assume it needs refrigerant. As I said I am very impressed with this car. This car is 27 years old and I would label it a survivor. Some one had to pull maintenance to have lasted this long. But I am and will mostly be a Ford and Chevy man. This car is sold as is no warranty. Shipping or pick-up will be your responsibility. Will answer all questions honestly. I have 100% positive feedback.

Saab's latest Chinese owners facing their own credit woes
Sat, 16 Aug 2014Poor Saab, it can't seem to get a break. General Motors couldn't seem to make a go of it, neither could Spyker, and now it seems that its latest owner is encountering some problems of its own.
That owner, of course, is National Electric Vehicle Sweden, a Swedish holding company owned by Chinese investors. NEVS recently restarted production at the Saab plant in Trollhättan, Sweden, and had some ambitious plans for the brand's revival, but it appears to have run out of cash.
This according to a report in The Wall Street Journal, which discovered that NEVS is having trouble paying its suppliers. One such supplier, called Labo Test, has reportedly been owed some $22,000 by NEVS since February, and without payment, petitioned the Swedish government to place NEVS into bankruptcy proceedings. If that seems a little extreme to you over twenty-two grand, it would seem the parties agree, as the petition has reportedly since been withdrawn.
NEVS Emily GT electric sedan developed by ex-Saab engineers finds a buyer
Wed, Aug 2 2023Even in death, Saab could not rest in peace. In life, the Swedish automaker never managed to get out from between the sales rock and the financial hard place. After GM bought half the company in 1989 and took full control in 2000, the inevitable brand engineering led to cars like a Saab 900 on an Opel platform, a Subaru Impreza rebadged as a Saab 9-2XÂ and a Chevrolet Trailblazer turned into a Saab 9-7x. This went as well as anyone who knew Saab would expect. Come January 2010, Saab was dead. Or rather, Saab had entered a zombie state rebranded as New Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS), two Chinese companies in succession buying the automaker's intellectual property, both having to walk away due financial issues at the parent companies. Earlier this year, NEVS showed one of the projects it continued to work on throughout the turmoil, a four-seat battery-electric car called the Emily GT. NEVS said it was looking for a buyer for the project or the entire company. According to Sweden's Auto, Motor und Sport (translated) that broke the story, and further reporting from Saab Planet, the search has succeeded and the Emily will come to life. Saab Planet writes that in March of this year, a Swedish company called Stenhaga Invest bought 80% the the Stallbacka factory and office complex in Trollhattan where Saab used to build its cars, NEVS holding onto the remaining 20%. AMS reported that an as-yet-unknown European investor has signed a letter of intent to purchase two of the 13 projects NEVS said it has been working on, the Emily GT and the PONS, an autonomous shuttle. Svante Andersson, who runs Stenhaga, is reported to have said the unnamed investor is interested in taking control of "a substantial area" of the Trollhattan facilities, "indicating that a significant number of people will be employed in Trollhattan." Back in March, an NEVS engineer said properly funded development could get the Emily GT into production in less than two years. Based on the sports sedan we've been told about, that seems reasonable. Ineos chief Sir Jim Ratcliffe announced the Ineos Automotive Grenadier in 2017, showed a concept in 2020, and had a model running the hill at Goodwood in 2021 — four years for a ground-up design. Saab Planet writes that "a timeline for relaunch is expected to be announced after a meeting between the parties involved during week 32," which would be the week of August 7.
Spyker files $3 billion lawsuit against General Motors over Saab's demise
Mon, 06 Aug 2012"Smack." That's the sound of Spyker's process server dropping a big ol' pile of legal documents on the doorstep of The Renaissance Center, home of General Motors - or wherever GM's attorneys live during business hours. Contained therein is a Complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan and demanding a jury trial, that seeks $3 billion in damages due to "the unlawful actions GM took to avoid competition with Saab Automobile in the Chinese market." Spyker accuses GM of "tortiously interfering" with Saab's business relationship with Chinese automaker Zhejiang Youngman Lotus Automobile (Youngman), actions that Spyker CEO Victor Muller (above) said "deliberately drove Saab Automobile into bankruptcy."
(From Wikipedia: "Tortious interference, also known as intentional interference with contractual relations, in the common law of torts, occurs when a person intentionally damages the plaintiff's contractual or other business relationships.")
The interference in question specifically refers to the very last potential deal, called the Framework Agreement, that Spyker worked out with Youngman. With lots of GM engineering embedded into the 9-4X and 9-5, The General had the right to approve any Saab partnership that would involve the transfer of GM intellectual property. Spyker had been rebuffed over every previous deal with a Chinese firm, including two bids by Youngman, due to GM concerns over its IP getting into Chinese hands and having to face Chinese-market competitors using its technology. The Complaint alleges that the Framework Agreement would have put a firewall around all GM IP - Youngman would only work on Saab's Phoenix platform, said to be just about free of GM tech, and would have no access to 9-3, 9-4X or 9-5 technology until after Saab ceased all ties to GM.
