Up for Auction we have a Beautiful 1988 Saab 900 Turbo Convertible. This car was a One Owner Car and was always garaged. It is loaded with all of the options that were available in 1988. Everything works as it should. Even the radio. we have all the original books and manuals even the Radio code card. This car is very clean. It was always Garaged and it shows! It runs and drives as you would expect a 48,000 mile car to run...Like New! The top goes up and down effortlessly. All the windows and electrical items work fine. The body has no paintwork that we could find. It is all Original. The tires are in great shape with lots of tread remaining. The original radio works as well as the factory equalizer. Even the Power Antenna Works! The leather seats are in Great shape with very little wear on them. It is truly a pleasure to drive. I have actually had this Beautiful convertible for almost a year and have enjoyed it. As a dealer I get many cars however I really loved this one so I put it in the garage where it belongs and used it on sunny days. It is now ready to go to its new owner who will care for as the Original owner did. Being a 25 year old car it is not new but in great shape. It does however have a few little things. The glove box door has a applique on it that is starting to peel on the edge. The material on the drivers door panel insert has become unglued in places in is a bit loose. The windshield has a tiny crack (less than 1 inch ) from a rock hitting it. The front cover on the ashtray has come off. Te top which I believe to be original has three little wear holes from going up and down. It is not ripped and is still in good condition but has these spots that are worn. ( See Pictures for all these issues). The speakers for the radio crackle a bit sometimes but the radio plays and sounds fine. There are a few small door dings and maybe some very small scratches that are not really noticeable. These is a small piece of molding on the left side front bumper extension that is missing. Thats about it. It is truly a time capsule in excellent condition! It even still has the Factory Bosch Fog lights under the front bumper!! If you are in the NY NJ Metro Area and would like to see and drive this Beautiful Saab Convertible feel free to call me at 646 302 9900. I will assist in Shipping or Pickup arrangements anyway I can. A $500.00 dollar deposit Via paypal is due within 24 hours of the auction end. If the winning bidder is planning to register the vehicle in New Jersey, NJ state sales must be collected. Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!

NEVS mulling electric Saab 9-3 convertible, looking for engine partners, too
Wed, 14 Nov 2012Do you believe in reincarnation? Like how we hope that, maybe, all of our hard work as auto writers will result in an eventual return as a swarm of beautiful butterflies. If you are a Saab fan, the equivalent could be this bit of news: The 9-3 Convertible may rise again, as an electric vehicle.
Word comes from the Dutch version of Autoweek that Chinese entity National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS) has indicated that it will bring an electric version of the 9-3 Convertible to market in the next 18 months. The EV droptop would first debut in the Chinese market, but could expand, as could the lineup to other 9-3 variants, such as the sedan and SportCombi. A NEVS spokesperson has stated, "NEVS basically no doors holds." We're not sure if that's the spokesperson or the translation from the Dutch report, but you get the gist.
NEVS also indicated that conventionally powered versions of the 9-3 could be produced as well. The internal combustion engines could be the originally intended General Motors engines. Regardless of powerplant, we would be very eager to see Saab return, potentially as an EV to boot!
Spyker's $3B lawsuit against GM for blocking Saab sale thrown out
Tue, 11 Jun 2013US District Judge Gershwin Drain has dismissed a $3-billion lawsuit Spyker filed against General Motors. In the suit, Spyker accused GM of attempting to bankrupt Saab after the US automaker had already sold the company to Spyker. GM in effect blocked the sale of Saab to China's Zhejiang Youngman Lotus Automobile Company by prohibiting the transfer of some of its intellectual property. But the court found that GM had a "contractual right" to approve or disapprove any change of ownership. Furthermore, Reuters reports Judge Drain said the contract between GM and Spyker "is clear, unambiguous and absolute" on the matter.
GM, meanwhile, says it is pleased with the ruling. Spyker CEO Victor Muller has not said whether or not his company will appeal the ruling. The Dutch automaker is expected to make a final decision once the court issues its written order on the case.

Vampire Weekend burns for Saab
Thu, 21 Mar 2013Or is it the other way around?
Could Vampire Weekend be trying to tell me something? A just-launched music video for the indie rock band's new single Diane Young features what looks like a pretty mint black Saab 900 Turbo Convertible being torched in slow-motion. In fact, with the exception of a brief, flickering cameo by a 900 three-door of a similar vintage, that's all that there is to the nearly three-minute long video. It's both sad and oddly beautiful.
Coincidentally, I have a similar-looking turbocharged black Saab convertible sitting in my garage, and I've been reluctantly pondering its sale this very week. Admittedly, mine is a later model (2001 9-3 Viggen), but tri-spokes and more tapered rump aside, it looks eerily identical. And while mine isn't mired in flames (I love it too much to torch it), through no fault of its own, it's been sitting motionless far too regularly. Thankfully, I see a better future for it than the droptop seen above.
