- Unique, original looking 8v 900 Turbo for sale. SPG's are always for sale, but this one is intentionally stock. This car has been repainted, re-upholstered, and has new brakes and exhaust. It looks amazing and runs and drives good too.
- Problems I'm aware of include:
- It has AC but does not currently work, but could be easily fixed.
- The manual sunroof is stuck shut. It too could be fixed but will probably require removing the headliner, so I have not done it since the headliner is so nice and the roof doesn't leak.
- There is a small rust spot starting to bubble up on the sunroof, but is the only rust spot on the car that I am aware of.
- There are a couple electrical gremlins that are hard to explain here, but it is an '83 Saab after-all. I'll be happy to go over this with the buyer, but it's nothing that will keep you from enjoying this car.
- I have the badges for the rear hatch, but haven't installed them yet and will be included in the sale. I also have a set of side rub strips but did not re-install since they were old and did not feel they'd look good with the new paint. I can include these if desired.
- As mentioned, the paint is new in the last couple years. I didn't have the paintwork done, but it looks pretty nice. There were some rust spots on the hood that I fixed last summer and had the hood professionally resprayed to match the car and it looks great.
- Interior was re-done by previous owner and as you'll see in the photos really sets this car off. Also includes vintage Coco Mats.
- Dash does have a cap on it to fix the common Saab issue of cracked dashes.
- The stereo speakers all work but are really cheap units, so I have acquired new speakers. They aren't quite installed yet, but will be included in the sale. Has an aftermarket but period correct Pioneer tape deck.
- All brake parts were replaced or serviced within the last year and are all tip-top.
- New exhaust installed within the last year.
- New Interstate battery
- Tires are in good shape
- New valve cover gasket just installed as it was leaking a bit before.
- I have a set of Ronal minilites in silver that I could include with sale
- Car was at this past year's national Saab convention in Iowa City.

GM recalls over 230,000 more Trailblazer-family SUVs over door electronics
Sun, 16 Jun 2013Back in August, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced a recall on the General Motors GMT360 SUVs (Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X) ranging from the 2005 to 2007 model years and the 2006 GMT370 SUVs (Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL) due to potential fires associated with the driver's door module. Initially limited to 250,000 units sold or registered in 20 Snow Belt states (and the District of Columbia), the recall has now been expanded to include an additional 193,000 of these SUVs in the US and, according to The Detroit News, 40,000 more sold outside the US, including Canada and Mexico.
Like the original recall, the issue is still a faulty driver's door module that can short out, which could lead to a fire. The Detroit News is reporting that, out of the 443,000 units being recalled, GM says that there were 58 fires that caused 11 minor injuries, and the expanded recall accounted for six fires and one injury. Despite the lower number of fires, the recall notice recommends that owners park their vehicles until the recall repairs has been performed.
On recalled units with functional modules, the repair consists of a protective coating being applied to the module, while vehicles with modules that are not working properly will have the driver's door module replaced. The official recall notice is posted below, and it includes contact information for customers of all five brands.
Mahindra eying stake in Saab owner NEVS?
Tue, 17 Jun 2014It's ironic that Saab's current vehicle architecture is called the Phoenix platform, because like the mythological bird, the company keeps returning from the ashes. That's right, the embattled Swedish automaker isn't completely dead yet. Again. Actually, it may be facing yet another buyout, and this time, the buyer may be from India.
Less than a month ago, the situation looked ominous for Saab. National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the carmaker's current owner, temporarily shut down 9-3 production at its Trollhättan factory not long after restarting it in the first place. According to Just Auto, it laid off about 100 consultants allegedly linked to problems making June payroll, as well. At the time, Saab claimed that the measures were temporary, and it was negotiating selling part ownership to another automaker.
Those assertions might have some truth behind them, it seems. Indian newspaper The Economic Times reports that Mahindra & Mahindra and an unnamed Asian automaker are negotiating with NEVS to purchase part of the company. It claims that the Indian automaker sees Saab as an opportunity to add a premium brand to its business.
NEV deal to buy Saab delayed
Fri, 03 Aug 2012Remember a month and a half ago when we told you that Saab will "soldier on?" Well, we should have written "stand at attention."
According to SaabsUnited, the deal for National Electric Vehicle Sweden to buy the remaining Saab assets didn't close on schedule. In fact, it's been delayed by "a month, perhaps more." NEVS also seems to have indicated that it's not going to be answering any more questions about the deal until it's completed.
NEVS is supposedly planning on building electric cars based on the design that would have been the next-generation 9-3. The company itself is a partnership between a Chinese energy company and a Japanese investment group.
