Very nice 2002 9-5 Aero. Black with dark gray interior, 2.3 liter, 250 hp , 5 speed trans.

Recently purchased from the first owner for my daughter to replace her now defunct 9-3 Arc. After taking care of a few needs and having it Maryland inspected (very rigorous ) we realized that the previous owner had whited out a mistake (wrong sig. line) and we would need a new title. While waiting for the duplicate title there was a change of heart and now I'm looking for another 9-3 for her. In all fairness I may have influenced the decision since I love the Aero/5 speed (my sister has almost the exact car in Santa Barbara). If you have a nice 2004+ low mileage 9-3 I would consider some kind of trade deal.

Body and paint are very nice. There are a few very small door dings and chips and the front spoiler and the rear bumper have been painted. A small area is peeling ( clearcoat) on the rear cover ( see pics). That said it is a very sharp looking car.

Interior is excellent, no rips,tears, scuffs or funky smells. Floor mats are OK but starting to show their age. No perceptible wear on buttons or controls and the SID is perfect.

No warning lights, everything works. Tight suspension and steering, brakes are new in rear, almost new at the front, shifts smoothly with strong clutch and no synchro issues.

DI cassette, SID, latest PCV update and crank sensor had been replaced before I bought the car. I replaced the rear rotors and pads, the battery, intermediate flex pipe and changed the oil ( Mobil 1) and filter.

Drives beautifully, handles great, plenty of power but still gets 30+ mpg on the highway.

For sale locally so I will cancel this listing if it sells before the reserve has been reached. Questions welcomed.

Saab-powered Ford is the most unlikely drift car we've seen

Tue, Jan 19 2016

Yes, you read that headline correctly. It's supposed to be a Saab-powered Ford, and not the other way around (although we fully support the notion of a Sonnet with a Flathead V8). Apparently, some lunatic in the UK took an ass-less 1953 Ford Anglia, paired it with a turbocharged Saab engine, and tuned the entire thing to go drifting. We like it. Called Urchfab, it's the subject of Carfection's (the blokes formerly known as XCar) latest video. Aside from looking like an extra from the British version of Mad Max, it has a problem with grip, in that there's just too much of it. This car is a fabber's dream, as we get to see its unnamed owner fashion new bits and bobs for the suspension before having an unfortunate encounter with a wall at Castle Combe. You can check out the full video up at the top of the page for a closer look at this monstrous Anglia. Related Video:

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.

Former Saab chairman Muller faces summons in tax inquiry

Thu, 23 May 2013

Former Saab Chairman Victor Muller may be called in for questioning as part of an official inquiry into suspected tax evasion by three of the automaker's former executives. A prosecutor has officially named former CEO Jan-Ake Jonsson and two other executives in the investigation, and official court documents say that Muller will be called in by the Financial Crimes Unit. According to Reuters, prosecutors are currently looking into allegations that the executives worked to dodge taxes between 2010 and 2011, when the automaker finally went into bankruptcy.
The Truth About Cars reports the investigation may center around the $540,000 paid as consulting fees to Latin America Tug Holding NV, a company Muller owns. It's possible that the Swedish authorities believe the Saab executives were using the tug boat company as a tax haven, and that the automaker should have paid taxes and social security contributions on the money. Muller has not been charged.
Meanwhile, Muller is defending his earnings in a new interview with Automotive News. Having come under fire for his $773,000 salary at Saab, the Spyker CEO said his pay was commensurate with an executive running a company with 4,000 employees.
