This is a really nice classic 900. I was amazed at the condition. There is no rust on the car. I have been driving it from State College to Altoona the past month for work with no problems and I have been getting about 22 miles to a gallon! The leather is in great shape minus the hole on the side of the drivers seat and stitching. No cracking at all! The top is in great condition minus the stretching below the back window. I just cleaned and conditioned it and there are NO LEAKS! Car has less about 115K original on it. I also have the convertible boot cover with the bag! Car runs and drives amazing for being 22 years old. 

I took it down to Smeltz Auto in Lewisburg, PA (only place I know of that works on Saabs) and they checked the car out. I was told it is in great shape with no rust. At that time I had the AC serviced and retro fitted to R134 and it blows ICE COLD! They serviced the transmission and did a full syn oil change for me. The guy I got it from didn't really like the car and didn't really know the history of it. Smeltz said that they believed the transmission had been replaced at one time and didn't find anything in it when they serviced it. 

I have done the following to the car since I bought it;

1. Fixed the dash lights and they all work
2. Fixed the radio installation because whoever put the new radio in it only used the front speakers
3. Fixed the back antenna assembly to actually work
4. Put new headlight bulbs in
6. Put new heater core in

The brakes and tires are like new. Exhaust is an aftermarket one and more "throaty" then the stock exhaust I am use to on the classic 900 Turbos.  Windshield looks like it is brand new as well.  

The things I believe are wrong with the car is more cosmetic then anything. The inside door cloth covers need replaced, back cloth on the side of the speaker covers need replaced, front drivers seat (as mentioned above) and the paint is really faded on the hood. The two mechanical things is that the steering is getting harder to turn so pump, rack or might be a steering knuckle? I'm not sure. There is also a vacum leak in the cruise control line. Sometimes the cruise works and sometimes it doesn't. When it does it'll slowly release and loose speed. 

My intention with this car was to work on with my son but we ended up getting another car and really don't want this one taking up room in the garage but will if we don't/can't sell it. I would have no issues driving this car anywhere and will continue to drive it to work in Altoona from Bellefonte until I sell it or winter finally gets here. 

Price is negotiable so if you are interested shoot me a message.  I really want to get this car gone before the winter.  I would NOT hesitate to drive it anywhere in the USA.  I just want to see this go to another Saab guy or gal.

ADDED:
The top goes up and down with the button, no problems.  No sounds, hesitation, etc.  Windows all go up and down.  Mirrors work with switches.  Engine has full synthetic in it....5w40 and changed right before I got it.

The instrument cluster was changed at Euro Motors in Harrisburg and shows milage of 140,000 and I have paperwork for the job from them in the glovebox.  True milage is around 115K give or take a couple hundred.  

Stereo is a Pioneer CD with audio jack to plug an MP3 player or your phone.  BEST part of driving it is having clean clear music coming out of the speakers.

If you buy the car I could deliver within 200 miles for an extra $200 October 4th.

NEVS Saab EV prototype on display, with top speed of just 75 mph

Sat, Aug 23 2014

National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the Saab-owning Swedish holding company that is in turn owned by Chinese investors, has some problems (i.e., no cash). But that isn't stopping NEVS from showing off a prototype Saab 9-3 Electric Vehicle this week. But wait, you might be saying, didn't NEVS already start production of a 9-3 EV? Yes, indeed, and the vehicle displayed this week was indeed built at the Saab plant in Trollhattan in May as one of those early pilot builds. A modified Saab 9-3 Aero Sedan, the EV has had the lithium-ion battery pack jammed under the floor, so all of the cargo and passenger space of the gas-powered 9-3 remains available. "The starting point for our development of the Electric Vehicle project was to maintain all the good attributes and characteristics," said NEVS' vice president of engineering and product development, Stig Nodin in a statement. You can find the press release below. The li-ion pack comes from Beijing National Battery Technology (which is owned by the same company that owns NEVS) and can offer a range of about 120 miles, NEVS says. The prototype also has a 100-kW electric motor that offers 140 horsepower that provides a 0-60 miles per hour time of 10 seconds and a top speed of just 75 miles per hour. That's unlikely to be fast enough to outrun Saab's creditors, but NEVS says that the prototype is here "to serve as a reference for specification of coming production model(s)," so let's hope the speed number can be increased while the range at least stays the same. Today Nevs presented the Saab 9-3 Electric Vehicle as designed and produced as part of a prototype series in Trollhattan. The car is a modified Saab 9-3 Aero Sedan where the batteries are placed under the floor, keeping the full interior space as well as the luggage compartment intact. With that, the Saab 9-3 EV is just as practical as the Saab 9-3 Aero with gasoline engine. The Saab 9-3's famous driving-experience is of course preserved in the EV, helped by its low center of gravity and a 50/50 weight distribution. "We are happy to present the result of Nevs engineering into a real Saab EV product. The Saab cars' well-known performance and safety is maintained and we foresee a very good product for the market. When we developed the Saab 9-3 Aero Sedan Model Year 14, we focused on enhancing the driving experience, safety and quality.

Boeing, Saab introduce entry for T-X trainer program

Thu, Sep 15 2016

This 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.

Koenigsegg plans a ‘CO2 neutral’ hybrid supercar

Fri, Feb 1 2019

Fresh from receiving a 150 million-euro infusion from National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the Chinese-backed company that bought up Saab's assets out of bankruptcy, supercar maker Koenigsegg has signaled just what it plans to do under the new joint venture. Christian von Koenigsegg gave an interview to Top Gear in which he said he wants to develop an all-new supercar to sit below ultra-exclusive models like the Agera RS and Regera, priced at around ˆ1 million (about $1.15 million) to grow sales from 20 a year into the hundreds, because "our brand has outgrown our production volumes by quite a big margin." And it will feature a novel, "completely CO2 neutral" hybrid powrtrain using the "freevalve" camless combustion engine technology the company has been developing in concert with battery-electric power. "Given the freevalve technology, we can actually cold-start the car on pure alcohol, down to -30 degrees Celsius, so there's no need for any fossil fuel mix then," he told Top Gear. "The idea is to prove to the world that even a combustion engine can be completely CO2 neutral." Von Koenigsegg previously hinted at the setup after talking about how his engineers were responding to Tesla's claims that its forthcoming next-generation Roadster would be capable of a 1.9-second 0-60 mph time. He further hints that the new hybridized supercar will look unmistakably like a Keonigsegg but be in a different segment altogether from either the Agera RS or plug-in hybrid Regera. Consider us very much intrigued and eager to hear more. Meanwhile, Koenigsegg has said it plans to reveal the successor to the Agera RS next month at the Geneva Motor Show based on a refined version of the same supercharged V8 combustion engine. The new joint venture with NEVS, meanwhile, sees that company take a 65 percent ownership stake, with Koenigsegg holding the rest and contributing its trove of intellectual property, technology licenses and product design. NEVS also gets a 20 percent stake in Koenigsegg itself. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
