1991 Saab 900 S Convertible 2-door 2.1l (classic) on 2040-cars
|
The car was last registered in 2009. I have kept the car covered with a car cover, in a covered carport, until about two months ago, when I moved it to its current location. -The car runs well but it is not perfect. Please see, “PROBLEMS,” below. When I bought the SAAB, (about 6 years ago), the previous owner told me that the top was new, and that it had not been involved in any accidents. I believe that the previous owner replaced the original radio with an upgraded radio, but I am not certain of this. + The car runs well and seems to have a lot of power. The engine seems fairly quiet. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- PROBLEMS: Interior cosmetic - I have shown some, but not all, of those issues in the pictures. The issue includes rips, tears, curling, and missing pieces(s). Several narrow cracks in the top of the dashboard. Pieces of the burl wood type cover on the dash are torn or missing.Convertible top - Previous owner told me that the top had just been replaced. Later noticed that there was a piece of tape at the bottom of the rear window. Dont know why and I have left it there. I also noticed that one seam has opened a bit. You can see the tape and the seam in the pictures. Electronics work great! Transmission: The transmission is slightly slipping. When you put the car in reverse, the transmission slips. Also, when the car rapidly goes into overdrive, there is slipping. I have noticed that, if I remove the guide for the shift lever, there is less slipping. Also, I did not notice any slipping during normal forward driving. Tires and wheels: A wheel alignment is needed. The front passenger side tire should be replaced immediately AC: Does not work, not sure. I think it blows hot air. Trunk lock: Can be opened electronically only. Key is stuck inside. Seat belts: The piece that the seatbelts plug into does not hold the seatbelts, and the covers for those pieces are both falling off. Spoler: The passenger side spoiler is currently inside of the car. It has big crack in it, but is still in one piece. Other problems: There may be other problems that I do not know about, and there are likely other rips, chips, and tears on the interior, but I have put the problems that I know about in this auction information. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT INFORMATION Tire Size: Michellin 215/45 ZR 16 86Y Battery: I had to charge the battery when I moved the car to its new location. The battery held the charge and started the car. Other than that, I do not know the status of the battery. Fog Lights: The car has PIIA fog lights.
Other than guaranteeing that the car will pass a smog test, the car is Sold AS-IS WHERE-IS. No warranty and/or guarantees of any kind, (other than passing a smog test). Car is running. The car is not smoking or leaking. Clear CA title on-hand. I will accept a bank checks, personal checks, cash, and/or Pay-Pal. Title and possession will not pass until after full payment has cleared.

GM denies Spyker claims in $3B Saab lawsuit
Tue, 02 Oct 2012Reuters reports General Motors has dismissed claims by Spyker outlined in a $3 billion lawsuit. Spyker alleged GM deliberately bankrupted Saab by preventing a deal with Chinese investor Zhejiang Youngman Lotus. GM, meanwhile, filed a response with the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan saying that as the former owner of Saab, GM had the legal right to approve the deal with Youngman. But Spyker's lawsuit claimed GM's refusal to approve the deal with Youngman stemmed from the fact that the American automaker didn't want to create a competitor in China.
GM has said the issue stemmed more from the fact that it would stop licensing its technology to Saab or stop building vehicles for the manufacturer in the event it was bought by Youngman. Since Saab built its own platform that didn't use any GM tech, Spyker says that argument is meritless.
The lawsuit has Spyker seeking $3 billion in compensatory damages, though that number could swell with interest, punitive damages and legal fees, as well. Victor Muller, Spyker chief executive, has said the lawsuit is being funded by an anonymous third party. That party will share in any settlement. Youngman has refused to comment on whether or not it's footing the legal bill.
New owners still struggling to secure rights to use Saab name
Wed, 27 Jun 2012Not to state the obvious, but if you're going to buy an automaker, it's probably advisable to secure rights to use the name.
That's what the new owners of Saab are trying to work out after buying the iconic Swedish automaker earlier this month, Automotive News reports.
National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS), the Chinese-Japanese conglomerate, acquired the company's physical assets, including its factory in Trollhättan, but didn't get rights to use the Saab name and logo. Truckmaker Scania and defense company Saab AB maintain the name and logo rights, and will need to sign off on NEVS using it, according to the publication. The parties are in discussions.
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!
