 For Auction is my 1995 Saab 9000 Aero

I am the third owner of this car and have enjoyed driving it for the past 50,000 miles.  I have taken good care of the car and it has been very reliable transportation that is also fun to drive.   It has a huge trunk space with the hatchback design and is a very functional vehicle that has lots of power and handles like a tight sports car.   In 1995 this was the most powerful saab built and generates about 250 hp.   I am reluctantly selling this car due to a lack of space in my driveway and I want to buy a pickup truck as I have recently purchased a newer sedan and just don't need two sedans.  There are not many of these out there for sale that are in this condition and when you clean and detail the car it still looks pretty great as you can see in the photos.  Heat and AC work, climate control unit is working as it should. (AC will need to be charged).  Interior is in very good condition, no rips or tears in the seats.  Carpeting is showing some wear in the drivers foot well but no holes and the car has always had floor mats so the carpet is in very good condition.  The Harmon Cardon sound system works as it should and has a working CD player.  This car cost $40,000 in 1995 and was the top of the line Saab there were only 200 imported with an automatic transmission that year so it is an unusual vehicle on the road, people are amazed at the condition of the car when I tell them how old it is.  I would drive this car anywhere as it sits right now, if you have any questions or want to see more photos let me know and I will give you  a link to access.

Here are the some of the newer parts that have been installed on the car:

Ignition Cassette, alternator, water pump, 4 new rotors, brake pads, belt tension-er, radiator, thermostat, all heater and radiator hoses,  new head gasket, bulb control relay, head lights, front bumper, new exhaust system from the catalytic converter back to the exhaust tip.

This is not a new car and there are a few things that need some attention:
The fenders are just starting showing some rust bubbles, there is a small dent on the drivers fender, and some other nicks chips and dings, but all small stuff.  The passenger rear door will not lock and the auto locks don't work on all of the doors.  The drivers window works but doesn't go down all the way. (last2")  There is a crack in the dash board that is a bummer, but could be replaced with a used one or an after market part for around $100.

Great car for a Saab enthusiast or summer kid car as well.  I have sold several cars on Ebay and have very good feed back, if you want more information about the car let me know and I will get back to you ASAP.

Thanks for looking and Happy Bidding,

I accept paypal, a $500 deposit (non refundable) is paid at the end of the auction and all payment is expected in full within 72 hours of the end of auction.  If you want to have the car shipped to you all arrangements will be made by the buyer and I will work with you and your transporter to make for a smooth transfer of the vehicle.

3 former Saab execs charged with tax evasion

Mon, 20 May 2013

The Associated Press reports three former Saab executives have been arrested on charges of accounting fraud. Swedish prosecutor Olof Sahlgren has refused to identify the individuals, but says they're suspected of attempting to evade taxes by falsifying Saab accounts between 2010 and 2011 during the Spyker years. Other reports indicate the parties involved include former General Counsel to Saab Kristina Geers (seen to the left of former CEO Victor Muller, above), a 15-year-veteran of the company - her husband, Eric, was the company's communications director for 9 years as well.
Saab filed for bankruptcy in 2011, and was purchased shortly thereafter by National Electric Vehicle Sweden. If convicted, the trio could face up to four years in prison for their crimes under Swedish law.

Hot rod tractor stars in Swedish version of Farmkhana

Mon, 08 Sep 2014

The Nordic countries are known for their beautiful fjords, blonde-haired populace and bitter cold for a good portion of the year. The hours spent indoors during the dark, cold season apparently gives a lot of time for some crazy brainstorming. Tire store chain Vianor is highlighting the Traktor Terror in a new video. If Ken Block is the master of Gymkhana, then these guys know all about Farmkhana in their custom, turbocharged tractor.
According to the YouTube description from Vianor, the tractor is a 1956 Volvo BM Terrier with an added roll cage, adjustable front suspension and extended frame. The engine is thoroughly Swedish, and it's based on a Volvo 940 Turbo with a Volvo 240 head and Volvo 740 intercooler. However, it uses a Saab turbo Prospark ignition and fuel system. All told, the setup is claimed to make 225 horsepower and is capable of a top speed of 60 miles per hour.
That's not crazy power, but this tractor can certainly put it down. The farm machine has no problem smoking those big rear wheels and drifts easily.... although, it may be a tiny little bit unstable (hence the roll cage). If nothing else, this looks like the world's most fun way to be a farmer, that's for sure.

Junkyard Gem: 1983 Saab 900 Turbo 4-Door Hatchback

Sun, Mar 20 2022

I've been finding quite a few interesting Saabs in Colorado car graveyards lately, including a 96 and a 99 (sadly, a discarded example of a Saab 92 has eluded me — at least in the United States — so far), and now it's the turn of the factory-hot-rod Saab that gave car shoppers more horsepower per dollar than anything they could buy from Germany at the time: the 900 Turbo. I found this car a few weeks back in a yard just south of Denver. Saab sold the original version of the 900 in the United States for the 1979 through 1993 model years (after that, the 900 name went on a car based on the Opel Vectra and closely related to the Saturn L-Series), and the early 900s looked very much like their 99 ancestors. Saab was an early adopter of turbocharging, and so the 900 Turbo was available here for the entire 1979-1993 sales run. This engine, a 2-liter slant-four derived from a 1960s Triumph design (and first cousin to the engine used in the Triumph TR7), was rated at 135 horsepower in 1983. That was big power for a small car in the Late Malaise Era, and it gave the 1983 Saab 900 Turbo a power-to-weight ratio similar to what you got in the Mitsubishi Starion and Porsche 944 that year. Electronic fuel injection finally made turbocharging work well for everyday driving (though the Maserati Biturbo stuck with blow-throw Weber carburetors all the way through 1986 in the United States), and it wasn't long before TURBO became a magical word. Yes, by 1984 you had Ozone and Turbo break-dancing while Ice-T makes his film debut. A few years earlier, with the (carbureted) Turbo Trans Am's not-so-stellar reliability on display, Boogaloo Shrimp's character would have been assigned a different name. Though it's possible, based on the fact that at least one 1980s boombox was built from a Saab 900 dash, that Turbo's name was inspired by Saab. Saab should get credit for doing so much to push turbocharging into the daily-driver mainstream. You could get a three-speed Borg-Warner automatic transmission in your new 1983 Saab 900, but it added 370 bucks (about $1,075 in 2022 dollars) to the cost of the car and made it much less fun to drive. This one has the 5-speed manual; I assume the E next to fifth gear stands for "efficiency." The five-door 900 Turbo listed at $16,910 with five-speed manual, which comes to about $49,055 today. A new BMW 528e cost $23,985 that year ($69,580 now) and offered just 121 horsepower.
