We understand that buying a vehicle online can sometimes leave you un-easy. We are aware that there are other dealers online that do not fully describe the vehicles listed. They might leave important information out, or not have a thorough description of that item.

Our goal is simple. We aim to be honest and fair with all of our deals. Word of mouth and return business has gotten us this far. We achieve this by providing you with all of the information YOU need to make a comfortable decision, and hopefully proceeding to your investment, a vehicle! We strive for A+ satisfaction. We do not want to waste anyone’s time, and definitely don’t want to mislead you. This is why we inform you of EVERYTHING we know, and provide you with detailed descriptions and conditions of the item for sale. Business is expanding, explaining the new eBay account.

The Saab 9-5 linear is a very well-engineered Swedish machine. Saab started out first with the intent to build airplanes. Demand was low shortly after so with the same engineering they soon started building cars. Kind of like B.M.W., these vehicles are not built like your average American or foreign car.

This is not your older Saab; they claim that there were 1,100 changes to substantially improve this generation. These are very thoroughly built with comfort, convenience and SAFETY in mind for you, the consumer. Did you know that the Saab 9-3 and 9-5 were the first cars in the world to earn the max score in a side impact crash test? The standard side impact airbags have a lot to do with this. Saab decided to carry this to every car no matter what budget.

The experts from the consumer guide rated this car a 58, same as the Volkswagen Passat. Impressive! The BMW 3-series was rated lower at 56. Volvo’s S40 rated 47. Mercedes-Benz C-class rated a 46 and the Audi A4 received a 45. These are based upon 10 different categories from ‘99-‘02. Saab’s 9-3 beat all of these high end vehicles and most likely you never knew or considered Saab. People are starting to catch on and now. VW is in high demand, just like Honda was and still is. Be ahead of the game and buy a Saab now before the prices become unfair.

Yes, Saab filed bankruptcy and they are no longer in business as of right now. I have heard people are scared as their concern is about parts and labor. There will always be parts available in the replacement and modification market. They are not harder to find than any other car nor more expensive. They might be a little harder to find than Honda, because they are not mass produced, low quality parts. As for the labor side, any mechanic can work on these vehicles. I have not heard of different rates because it is a Saab. This is not a Porsche, where a tune up is going to cost you $500. An oil change is going to cost the same as your average car and you don’t need to be an engineer to do it yourself. I thought it would be nice to share some information I have learned over time.

Finally…

INTERIOR: Saab’s generally attract buyers that are very meticulous and neat. This 9-5 looks barely worn. The black leather seats look great, no rips, tears and barely even creased. Carpets look good. There are no offensive odors in the car. The spare tire, jack and tools are all still there. The quality and workmanship shows in this vehicle. I noticed the ‘night mode button’ and I had to push it. This shuts off or dims the lights that are not important for the driver. This creates less distraction for the driver when driving in the night. I think this feature would be great for the women. I noticed the dash cup holder does work properly, and there is one in the center console. I think there is a component part not functioning properly. I have not noticed any significant signs of wear. The A/C was cold and easy to use. The sunroof works great and all the windows. Everything works!

EXTERIOR: The body looks straight and sharp! With its own unique look similar to none it is very sleek looking. There are no obvious scratches of dents. There is a small ding on the driver side of the rear door. The tires all look great as you can see in the pictures. The fog light covers are gone, but it is actually barely noticeable.

MOTOR/HANDLING: The Saab 9-5 was very impressive to drive. Saab did not lack in any category as far as, acceleration, suspension, comfort, ease of use. This car definitely feels safe to be in. I can feel the turbo spoil up and the boost gauge works properly indicating everything is running smooth. It is very risky to buy a car online without knowing the condition of the turbo. The gears went in smooth and the clutch is very sensitive, feels new. The suspension felt great and steering was excellent. This is a fun daily driver, safe, reliable, and sporty. I admire the EcoPower engine. It was designed to put out high power and torque when it is needed, BUT still delivers good fuel economy and low emissions. I looked up the avg. mpg for this car and found people are averaging 28.5 miles per gallon in the gas engines. I think anywhere around that would be great. When I was driving I noticed the check endine light is on, ABS light, Brake light, and the speedometer was not working. The code ready P1625 and I did some research. This is a SIMPLE FIX. If you clean the ABS TCS module, all of these problems are linked and they will all be fixed. At worst case just buy a new one for under $100. Saablink.net will provide you with the same info, just do some light research. This car feels very reliable and I would have no doubt in driving it across the country. It was taken on a 3 hour drive with no problems!

To sum up this car, this car is probably what most of you are looking for, something safe for your first time driver, cheap, and easy to insure also. Are you looking for a gas efficient car that’s not from the 90’s? Or maybe you are looking for a daily driver, something to put miles on, either way this car has got you covered and it should deliver more than what you need. This car will get you where you need to be safe and cost effective, and it will last you as long as you need it. It is just broken in. It is simple, if you need a car like this for cheap, just buy it!

Subaru recalls 81,000 Impreza models for airbag replacement

Sun, May 31 2015

Subaru has submitted paperwork to The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration regarding an Impreza recall to replace faulty Takata airbag inflators, and the final tally is 81,100 units built between January 28, 2003 and May 31, 2005. Earlier this month Subaru had projected 78,000 Imprezas would be recalled from the 2004 and 2005 model years, but that final number also includes the Saab 9-2x; that Saab model, nicknamed the "Saabaru," was a badge-engineered Impreza Wagon that General Motors began selling in 2004. Affected Saab models were built from February 11, 2004 to March 17, 2005. This recall specifically affects passenger-side inflators, and Subaru and GM will notify owners that they can take their cars to the dealer for a free repair. The recall doesn't officially begin, however, until July 17, 2015. The notice from the NHTSA below has more information. Related Video: Report Receipt Date: MAY 28, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V323000 Component(s): AIR BAGS Potential Number of Units Affected: 81,100 Manufacturer: Subaru of America, Inc.SUMMARY: Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain model year 2004-2005 Impreza vehicles manufactured January 28, 2003, to May 31, 2005, and 2005 Saab 9-2x vehicles manufactured February 11, 2004, to March 17, 2005. The affected vehicles are equipped with a passenger side frontal air bag that may be susceptible to moisture intrusion which, over time, could cause the inflator to rupture upon its deployment.CONSEQUENCE: In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger's frontal air bag, the inflator could rupture with metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants potentially resulting in serious injury or death.REMEDY: Subaru will notify their owners and General Motors will notify Saab owners. Dealers will replace the passenger air bag inflator, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin July 27, 2015. Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-800-782-2783. Owners of Saab vehicles may call 1-800-955-9007. Subaru's number for this recall is WQR-53. Note: This recall partially supersedes recall 14V-763 in that model year 2004 through 2005 Subaru Impreza and model year 2005 Saab 9-2x vehicles are now only part of this campaign.NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Spyker's $3B lawsuit against GM for blocking Saab sale thrown out

Tue, 11 Jun 2013

US 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.
You can read the official Spyker press release about the court ruling below for more information.

Greetings from Trollhattan. I'm Emily, but I'm not a Saab.

Sat, Apr 29 2023

What’s Swedish for “never give up”? Saab, apparently. The fondly-remembered car company formerly called just that — and now named NEVS — is only a shell, employing just a limited crew in the land of trolls. But itÂ’s got something to sell, and that something seems like it's really something. ItÂ’s called Emily. The Emily GT exists as six prototype electric cars, according to NEVS, with a combined horsepower rating (per car) of 484 powered by an enormous 175-kilowatt lithium-ion battery thatÂ’s good for 600 miles of range. In development almost since Saab's demise — the company, once owned by General Motors, was closed down in 2010 — the Emily is a very real product and needs a real sponsor, according to NEVS CEO Nina Selander, speaking to Carup. “It is for sale, it is also a joy to be able to show it. It should be allowed to live on, itÂ’s too nice, too good and too modern a car for nothing to come of it. Interested parties are welcome,” she said. Photos of the car show a modern, forward-thrust profile with handsome lines, a look similar to the last Saab 9-5 and VolvoÂ’s S60 (must be a Swedish thing) and a fashionable, sci-fi-ish interior. A hopeful engineer on the project estimates that the car is less than two years away from some kind of series production, but according to the modest NEVS website, the company is currently in “hibernation” even as it continues to solicit buyers for the Emilys. Said Peter Dahl, the Emily project manager, “Many have asked us what we have been doing for 10 years. We have developed 13 different car projects, this is one of them.” Related video: Volvo Saab Automotive History Electric Future Vehicles Classics
