1995 Saab 900 Se Turbo Hatchback 2-door 2.0l on 2040-cars
Wells, New York, United States
|
I am selling my beloved Saab 900 SE Turbo. I have owned this car for just
over five years and have personally replaced nearly every nut and bolt on it due to
upgrades or maintenance. The car has a long story which I will be
happy to share with you. I wanted a Viggen but I like the look of the hatchback on the 1995, as well as the 2.0L turbo engine.
The work I have done includes but is not limited to the following: Increasingly hard to find Viggen Body Kit, "Viggen" Mitsubishi TD04 Turbocharger, 3” turbo back exhaust, Jak Stoll ECU tune, Taliafero aluminum intercooler, Short throw shifter that retains stock shifter height, front and rear strut tower braces, 1" rear anti roll bar, Bilstein HD dampers, Vogtland progressive rate springs, polyurethane suspension and steering bushings, 9-3 axle update to reduce torque steer, new transmission at 170k, brand new (less than 1000 miles) Viggen clutch and pressure plate and lightweight aluminum flywheel. I installed a new 2.0L engine last fall which I refreshed with every new seal, gasket, and o-ring. New polyurethane engine and transmission mounts. There are plenty of interior upgrades to modernize it like a 9-3. The stereo is a Clarion head unit, Kicker 4" dash speakers, Polk Momo 6"x9" rear deck speakers, Kicker 6.5" mid-bass door speakers and, if the buyer wants, a 10" Kicker L5 sub woofer in the trunk. 3/4 of the car was repainted last year. It has 17" Elbrus wheels with 3/8" wheel spacers for a nice flush tire fitment. The tires have less than 2000 miles on them and are 205/45-17 size General Gmax. It has Zimmerman cross-drilled rotors with EBC Redstuff brake pads with lots of life left on them. The only thing that should be addressed is a rust hole in the spare tire well which I am trying to find time to fix. Unfortunately this is a common problem with this generation Saab due to the shape of the rear hatch. I will take a picture if I can. Otherwise the car is completely rust free and shows excellent. I can take pictures of specifics and answer any questions you have upon request. This car runs VERY strong and is rather quick. It reliably holds about 25psi boost but still maintains 29mpg and stock drive ability aside from the lowered right height. Mechanically it needs nothing and is ready to drive away. The suspension work has done this car well. It holds the road impossibly well and rides fantastic at any speed. I have a folder of receipts and a spreadsheet of when I did much of the initial work that the buyer can have. And to answer the question people always ask; why am I selling it? Because I would like to focus my efforts on a classic car now and I need a garage bay :( |

Rare 9-5 SportCombi, 9-4X models being sold off in Saab asset auction
Mon, 03 Dec 2012Saab lovers take notice. Swedish auction house KVD has some ultra rare Saab products on the block, and we're not talking about a 1950s Saab 92. Up for auction are a bunch of low-mileage Saab models being sold off as part of the bankrupted automaker's assets. Included in the lot of cars are models like the 2012 9-5 SportCombi (above), the 2012 9-4X (shown below) and even a 9-5 sedan driven by Victor Muller himself.
Discovered by PistonHeads, this Saab auction has numerous 9-5 SportCombi and 9-4X models, which should prove to be very rare cars. Only a small number of 9-4Xs were ever sold, and Saab closed up shop before the 9-5 SportCombi could even go on sale here. In addition to the rarity, many of the cars have fewer than 10 miles on their odometers and seemingly low reserve prices; a 9-4X 3.0 XWD Premium with just six miles has a current bid of 180,000 Swedish Krona (just over $27,000 USD) that has already met the reserve price. Some of the cars still have the protective factory shipping tape covering up the interior and exterior.
Other than the rare SportCombis and 9-4Xs being auctioned off, there's also a sharp 2012 9-3 Cabriolet with 11 miles on the clock and a V8-powered 2006 Saab 9-7X with just 3,003 miles.
Saab tries [again] to emerge from bankruptcy
Fri, Feb 20 2015If we've learned one thing from watching The Walking Dead, it's that the only way to terminate a walker is with a swift and brutal blow to the brain. Sadly, no one has come along that's willing to do the gruesome deed to the stumbling shell that is Saab. The company's latest owner, National Electric Vehicle Sweden is trying, yet again, to crawl its way out of bankruptcy with a "composition proposal in order to exit the reorganization." That proposal, outlined in the attached press release, will see the majority of the company's many creditors receive full repayments. For 104 of the 573 creditors, all of whom have claims over 500,000 Swedish Krona (roughly $60,000), their claims will be reduced by 50 percent. If creditors approve the proposal, it'd provide "the conditions for completion of ongoing negotiations with two major OEMs," which the press release claims could come on as either a joint-venture partner in Trollhattan or a majority owner in the struggling company. We won't be holding our breath. Scroll down for the full press release from NEVS. Thursday, February 19, 2015 A composition to get Nevs out of reorganisation National Electric Vehicle Sweden AB, Nevs, provides unsecured creditors a composition proposal in order to exit the reorganisation. It creates the conditions for completion of ongoing negotiations with two major OEMs and the implementation of a new business plan together with partners and owners. Nevs' owners and management has noted the difficulty of completing this type of complex negotiations during a reorganisation and the risk premium it implies. The current negotiations, together with two major OEMs, are mainly focused on two tracks that are complementing each other. One is to form a technical joint venture company in Trollhattan and the other is to introduce a new majority owner in Nevs, with the plan of making Saab cars a global premium product. - The negotiations are progressing but we also see the complication of reaching an agreement when we are in a state of reorganisation. Our main owner has single-handedly financed the reorganisation and intends to get us out of it. In order for this to be possible financially, we need to reach a composition arrangement with the creditors, says Nevs CEO, Mattias Bergman. The composition proposal includes a composition of 50 percent for unsecured creditors on claims over 500'000 SEK.
Saab 9-3 production to start in China in 2013 [UPDATE]
Thu, 17 Jan 2013We knew that National Electric Vehicle Sweden planned to restart production of the last-gen Saab 9-3 at some point in the future, we just didn't know exactly when, or exactly where. As it turns out, the answers to those questions are soon, and China.
Though NEVS had initially said it will build vehicles in Sweden before shipping them to China, the latest report from Autocar suggests that the cars will instead be built right in Quingdao starting later in 2013. That's right, this calendar year. Also on the docket is a followup electric version of the 9-3, which is slated to come to market in 2014 in an effort to satiate China's wish that there be half a million EVs silently filling its streets within the next two years.
NEVS wants to be part of the EV solution, but it's not going to be easy. Naturally, if these cars are to be built in China, a factory has to be located or built, tooling needs to be in place, workers need to be hired and trained and a lengthy trail of paperwork has to be signed off by the government before even the well-known gasoline-powered 9-3 can be a reality, let along the unknown quantity that is the 9-3 ePower.
