You can bid with confidence on this classic 900S with an 89 SPG retrofit. It has a normally aspirated engine(which is why the transmission still works). The car is originally a California car and I moved it to Indiana 2 years ago. Only serviced by Saab enthusiast mechanics, but it  hasn't needed much since I bought it 5 years ago, with 165,000 miles on it. 

You are looking at a classic Saab, so I presume you know something  about these cars.
Here is the skinny; New (excellent used)bronze tinted windshield, new front brake pads, new throttle dashpot, new spark plugs, newer fuel pump, Right side outer CVJ boot, newer AC fan. Headliner is 5 years old and a little stained. The seats are out of a 90,000 mile car so they are comfortable and purple. Has typical aftermarket Alpine stereo but CD does not work, has MP3 dock input.
The Air conditioner works and was retrofitted 4 years ago with R134 refrigerant.
I have recently taken 2 cross country trips with this car. One to the outer limits of Maine and the other to South Carolina. The only issue was with the shift shaft coupler which was replaced.
This car consistently gets 33 MPG on the highway and does not burn ANY oil.
Now for what I know that it needs; Steering rack leaks, steering knuckle binds. Needs a new exhaust, but is wrapped and quiet! The central lock does not work, due to wire insulation deterioration and a short somewhere. This deterioration is also occurring on the wires to the cruise control and it will disengage over a stiff bump. The vacuum hoses for this unit are new so this is not the issue. As I said it works.
Fuel filler neck leaks, I have the replacement. Tachometer works intermittently.
A good freeze, helped to tear the weatherstrip loose on the drivers door, so there is some leakage that occurs when it rains. I doubt there is rust under this area, but this needs to be addressed.
I painted this car myself 5 years ago, spot filler only in body(really) and replaced the passenger door and hood from different cars. there are no dents, no rust through(anywhere) including front suspension trouble area!
This is a 27 year old car with 252,000 miles on it. It is by no means perfect but I obviously will drive it anywhere AND SO CAN YOU. IT NEEDS SOME THINGS, but I am done with it. This has been a truly wonderful and fun car and by far the best car of my 31 cars, that I have ever owned!!!
I have extra SPG parts for left and right middle section of the car along with the rails. Many extra parts as shown, including nice bright Hella headlights. Also a tow bumper and a tow bar. I moved with this behind a motorhome.

Saab restarts production line in Trollh"attan

Thu, 19 Sep 2013

The new owner of Saab, National Electric Vehicle Sweden, has bolted together its first two new cars at the company's traditional home in Trollhättan. The two 9-3 sedans were built to work bugs out of the production line and test newer components before full-scale production starts near the end of the year.
NEVS acting President, Mattias Bergman, issued a statement saying, "Prior to our decision to start production of Saab cars, we need to finalize a few remaining dialogues to build partnerships with suppliers. We now know that the plant is ready for production." First up for NEVS will be gas-powered, turbocharged 9-3s, before bringing a facelifted, electrified variant later next year. There are also plans to rejigger Saab's never-was Phoenix architecture for production, although NEVS needs to excise the remaining General Motors tech from the platform before building anything.
According to a report on Automotive News Europe, once under way, NEVS has set an optimistic target of 120,000 units per year by 2016, with sales focused in Europe and China - there's no official word on if NEVS ever plans to bring the Saab name back to North America.

Super sleeper Saab 900 does 174 mph in the standing mile

Sun, 14 Apr 2013

Somewhere behind Hennessey setting a new top speed record at this year's Texas Mile with its camouflage Ford GT, a stock-looking 1996 Saab 900T pulled up to the line to see what it could do. The dealer showroom wheels wouldn't offer any indication that the 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood was getting help from a Garrett turbocharger, a tuned ECU and E85 gas to put out 465 horsepower at the front wheels.
Knowing that, it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that at the other end of the mile the sky blue Swedish wonder was doing 174 miles per hour. The four-cylinder class at the Texas Mile has plenty such rockets, too, this Swede coming just behind a Dodge Neon that did 175.8 mph. You can watch the Saab do its thing in the video below.

Saab's never-was 9-3 gets a few better looks

Sat, 23 Mar 2013

The recent glimpses we've been getting of the never-was Saab 9-3 Phoenix must be like rubbing salt on the wounds of all the Saab fans out there. If that's the case, diehard Saab enthusiasts might want to look away from this. SaabWorld has uncovered a handful of shots of what was to be the next-generation 9-3 hatchback, and boy does it look sharp.
Revealing a clearer look at what we previously saw in grainy images or as a full-scale model, these new pictures show what Jason Castriota had in mind for the new car. The front end is obviously inspired by Saab's Phoenix Concept, while the rear of the car pays homage to the Saab 900 hatchback.
We like the overall look. Let us know what you think in the Comments.
