Leather, Manual Trans, Turbo, Sunroof, Ventilated Seats, Clean, Clear Title on 2040-cars
Winchester, Virginia, United States
2000 Saab 9-5, Black with tan leather. Sunroof, dual zone climate, ventilated seats, Aftermarket block heater installed (battery warmer and oil sump). 5 speed manual transmission. Much more reliable and desired than the automatic transmission. Car runs and drives fine great. It has just under 140K on the odo. We've had this since 117k (about 2 years), Has upgraded stainless steel clutch line from genuine saab. This repair was needed to make the car usable. It has been flawless since the line was replaced. Cant speak for prior owner, oil has been changed every 4k since we've owned it. Check engine light is for turbo bypass module, a uneeded sensor in the turbo pressure control system. It is a $35 dollar part available on any internet auto parts retail site. It has been bypassed. The climate control works, the blend flap door for the drivers side is broken, so the adjusted air only comes out of the passenger side vents. This too, is a easy and cheap fix. There are quite a number of well documented DIY's on how to replace the saab 9-5 blend flap door. Search for "saab 9-5 blend flap door repair DIY" and you will find everything you need to do the job yourself. Drivers seat is in good shape, has some wear on the backrest section. This is still a very presentable car. Rides nice and looks great. Body is in pretty good shape, there are some light scratches on the bumpers and doors including a larger scratch on the drivers side passenger door. All glass is in good shape. New tires and rims installed around 120k, they are in great shape. Front passenger turn signal has a damaged housing, the blub and light are working fine. This is a great running saab
Thanks and good luck, please make sure to ask any questions you may have |

The Saab 9-3 that never was finally shows up
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Looking back on the life and [slow and painful] death of Saab, it's impossible to not stop and think of what might have been with the quirky Swedish automaker. As it turns out, SaabsUnited has decided to shed some light on what the company's future might have looked like, including some images and information that include full-scale mockups of the 9-3 Phoenix, which you see above.
In its waning years, Saab's lead designer Jason Castriota was working feverishly to deliver new products that built on the heritage of the brand while doing so at a lower cost and in a shorter time period than previous models. In the end, though, it sounds like the earliest that we could have seen any of these plans come to fruition was 2014. In addition to hatchback and convertible 9-3 variants, Castriota also created the Sonnett - a sporty-looking 2+2 that never made it past the design study phase.
Regardless of whether you're a diehard fan of the brand or if you were just pulling for the underdog, you'll want to head on over to SaabsUnited to check out a little more of what the future could have held for Saab.
Petrolicious keeps our love of the Saab Sonett aflame
Wed, 19 Mar 2014German auto designs lean toward function and purpose. Italian designers deliver passion and beauty. The Brits, majesty. American cars, brashness and authority. If you want a funky design, though, you go to Sweden. The land of cheap, do-it-yourself furniture and delicious meatballs knows a thing or six about style and design, and while that character is only now reemerging thanks to a certain string of Volvo concepts, it use to be that Saab was the authority on penning some of the industry's more unique designs.
Take the beautiful Sonett for example - a small coupe whose appearance is a funky mishmash of a Porsche 911 and a Bugeyed Sprite with just a hint of a Citroën DS (it's that convex rear window). It's a positively striking car, made more unique by its two-stroke, three-cylinder powertrain and four-on-the-tree manual transmission. With just 70 horsepower hauling about 1,500 pounds of Swedish style, the Sonett strikes us as an ideal alternative to some of the English sports cars of its day, particularly for those that are looking for something beyond your average MG or Triumph.
For Glenn Roberts, the Sonett was a part of his childhood. His family owned example was originally a special-order item by his parents in 1967. He bought the car from them 13 years later and has never looked back, completing a restoration in 2004. With a story like that, it's not surprising that Roberts and his silver Sonett are the most recent pairing to get some attention from Petrolicious.
Saab begins 9-3 EV pilot production
Thu, 10 Apr 2014To say that Saab has had a tough time lately would be like saying that it's been a little colder than usual this winter. After General Motors finally gave up and sold it to Spyker in 2010, Saab declared bankruptcy the following year. GM successfully blocked Spyker from selling Saab to Chinese automaker Youngman the following year, but ultimately it ended up in the hands of another Chinese consortium called NEVS. Standing as it does for National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the new owners promised not only to restart production of the long-suffering 9-3, but also to turn it into an electric vehicle. And that's just what it's doing.
The latest news coming out of Sweden indicates that NEVS/Saab has started building the first examples of the 9-3 EV. These first 200 or so examples are set to be shipped off to Qingdao - the Chinese city that is home to the Tsingtao brewery, hosted the sailing components of the 2008 summer games on Beijing, was supposed to host an IndyCar race in 2012 before it was canceled, and also itself just happens to own 22 percent of NEVS.
These first EVs have their batteries mounted down low in the chassis for a low center of gravity and have a range of about 20 miles on a full charge. That's absolutely paltry compared to the other EVs on the market: a Nissan Leaf will travel more than four times that distance, and a Tesla Model S will go ten times farther on a charge.
