For sale 2004 Saab 9-3 T Convertible, automatic with 112K miles. Has Florida CLEAN title. This is ARC model with big T badge on the back. Has the high-pressure turbo higher output engine with 210hp. This vehicle is fully loaded with leather interior, power windows, mirrors, and convertible top. Has automatic digital climate control, upgraded audio system, factory HID Xenon bright headlights, wood steering wheel and more.

 

Engine has fresh oil, runs and drives beautiful with plenty of power and the transmission shifts very smooth. Tires are pretty good with about 80% left on them. It was always maintained at the local ‘Shumacher’ Saab dealership, comes with all the manuals and tons of receipts!!! I always take a good care and never spare any cost! Has many new parts including new computer and key recently $1200 bill, just to mention few. Adult driven, never raced or abused! Premium gas was always used. Paint is really nice and shiny, no rust whatsoever its Florida car! The only flaw in the paint is the passenger door and quarter panel has light scratch/door ding that is shown on the pictures. Nothing serious that sticks out or is immediately noticeable!!! Leather interior is nice and clean as well, very minimal normal wear on the driver seat (see pictures). All the buttons and lights work properly and the glove box can be locked for safety when the top is down.

Convertible top operates flawlessly, the fabric is nice and tight and seals really good with no leaks. Saabs are notorious for convertible hydraulic cylinders leeks and they are inevitable to be serviced at some point. This is factory flaw; Saab use wrong seals in the manufacturing process that eventually fails and leeks. Both tonneau cover cylinders that are the usual culprit of this system were rebuilt about a month ago to the better than original specifications (cost me $250 each,) and the whole system was filled with fresh Pentosin Long-Life CHF 11S Synthetic Hydraulic Fluid!  (It is very important to use correct hydraulic fluid to prevent future leeks!!!) You can see the pictures of the cylinders, there is absolutely no hydraulic fluid leeks.

 

If you are out of state bidder I can pick you up at the local airport, that is Fort Lauderdale or airport designation FLL if you trying to book a flight.

 

Purchaser is responsible arrange shipping and for all the transportation charges if the vehicle will be shipped!!!

 

If you have any question please ask before you bid. Thanks for looking

New owners still struggling to secure rights to use Saab name

Wed, 27 Jun 2012

Not 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.

Turkey buys rights to Saab 9-3 for domestic car

Mon, Oct 19 2015

Just in time for Halloween, a Saab is rising from the dead. National Electric Vehicle Sweden, which controls the Swedish automaker, is selling the intellectual property rights for the second-generation 9-3 to the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK). This government-supported agency intends to turn the sedan into the "Turkish National Car," according to NEVS. Using the aging 9-3 as a backbone, Turkey intends to strengthen the nation's auto industry by producing an extended-range electric vehicle by 2020, Daily Sabah reports. The goal is for 85-90 percent of the components to come from the country. "From design to production, Turkey will be the center for all parts and processes regarding the first domestically produced car," Interim Science, Industry and Technology Minister Fikri Isik said to Daily Sabah. TUBITAK considered developing its own vehicle from scratch but calculated at least $1 billion in costs. Without going into specific detail, Isik said that buying the rights to the existing Saab turned out to be a better option. Despite having sold the 9-3 IP, NEVS is signing on to help with a business plan and to create the necessary supply and distribution chains for the EV. NEVS previously tried to revive the 9-3 itself by briefly continuing production and attempting to launch an electric version. Earlier this year, it partnered with Dongfeng to develop green vehicles. The company has been beset with financial problems, embroiled in a seemingly interminable post-bankruptcy reorganization progress. NEVS has been chosen by TUBITAK as its partner for developing a Turkish National Car TUBITAK, (the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey) which has been assigned to develop "Turkish National Car" and realize this important mission, has chosen National Electric Vehicle Sweden AB, Nevs, as the industrial partner for the project. The cooperation has started in June 2015 between Nevs and TUBITAK and future industrial synergies in terms of development and manufacturing shall be generated with this cooperation. In the short term perspective this cooperation shall put Nevs' assets to work and shall give Turkey quick access to extensive automotive knowledge and experience. Nevs shall also provide its know-how in the developing of the business plan and establishing of the supply and distribution chains to TUBITAK.

Dealership refunds student for broken Saab with bags of pennies

Fri, Jul 25 2014

Every so often, we come across the story of someone trying to "stick it to the man" by paying a parking fine or speeding ticket in pennies or dimes. Never, though, have we heard of a business stooping to such cliched lengths. Enter Florida. Irena Mujakovic bought a 2003 Saab way back in January from Holiday Motors, in Jacksonville, FL. Shortly after the purchase, the transmission started acting up. She returned to the dealer and paid for the repair, and purchased a warranty for future issues. Total cost: $300. But then the trans crapped out not long after the initial repair, and Mujakovic was back at Holiday Motors. This is where things start going south. This second trip cost Mujakovic $400, with her warranty in hand. That's because the man that runs the dealer, Ed Di Miranda, neglected to mention that the warranty didn't cover labor costs. "The warranty did not cover labor and I failed to write that in and that was her loophole," Di Miranda told First Coast News. The young college student filed a complaint with the Florida DMV, who sided with her and ordered Holiday Motors to refund the money. Di Miranda and the dealership did just that, but when Mujakovic came to collect her refund, it was to a bag of pennies, with a few dollar bills sprinkled in for good measure. Di Miranda, doesn't seem to think he's done anything wrong, claiming that only about $85 was in change, while the rest was paper money. "I am doing what DMV asked me to do," Di Miranda said. "It is legal tender." Mujakovic has not collected her refund. Have a look below for the video news report. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
