- Unique, original looking 8v 900 Turbo for sale. SPG's are always for sale, but this one is intentionally stock. This car has been repainted, re-upholstered, and has new brakes and exhaust. It looks amazing and runs and drives good too.
- Problems I'm aware of include:
- It has AC but does not currently work, but could be easily fixed.
- The manual sunroof is stuck shut. It too could be fixed but will probably require removing the headliner, so I have not done it since the headliner is so nice and the roof doesn't leak.
- There is a small rust spot starting to bubble up on the sunroof, but is the only rust spot on the car that I am aware of.
- There are a couple electrical gremlins that are hard to explain here, but it is an '83 Saab after-all. I'll be happy to go over this with the buyer, but it's nothing that will keep you from enjoying this car.
- I have the badges for the rear hatch, but haven't installed them yet and will be included in the sale. I also have a set of side rub strips but did not re-install since they were old and did not feel they'd look good with the new paint. I can include these if desired.
- As mentioned, the paint is new in the last couple years. I didn't have the paintwork done, but it looks pretty nice. There were some rust spots on the hood that I fixed last summer and had the hood professionally resprayed to match the car and it looks great.
- Interior was re-done by previous owner and as you'll see in the photos really sets this car off. Also includes vintage Coco Mats.
- Dash does have a cap on it to fix the common Saab issue of cracked dashes.
- The stereo speakers all work but are really cheap units, so I have acquired new speakers. They aren't quite installed yet, but will be included in the sale. Has an aftermarket but period correct Pioneer tape deck.
- All brake parts were replaced or serviced within the last year and are all tip-top.
- New exhaust installed within the last year.
- New Interstate battery
- Tires are in good shape
- New valve cover gasket just installed as it was leaking a bit before.
- I have a set of Ronal minilites in silver that I could include with sale
- Car was at this past year's national Saab convention in Iowa City.

Spyker to appeal dismissal of Saab lawsuit against GM
Fri, 21 Jun 2013It seems as if Spyker CEO Victor Muller has made a decision on whether or not to pursue a legal battle between his company and General Motors. Spyker has announced it will appeal a US District Court decision to throw out the company's lawsuit against GM. As you may recall, on June 10 Judge Gershwin Drain ruled tht GM had a right to approve or disapprove Spyker's sale of Saab to Zhejiang Youngman Lotus Automobile. Spyker sued GM for some $3 billion, claiming that the American automaker had forced Saab into bankruptcy by stopping Spyker from transferring intellectual property to its Chinese partner.
Spyker has said only that it plans to appeal the decision. Until now, the company has been silent about the ruling. GM, meanwhile, has said it is pleased with the original outcome. You can read the quick Spyker press release below for more information.
The Saab 9-3 that never was finally shows up
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Looking back on the life and [slow and painful] death of Saab, it's impossible to not stop and think of what might have been with the quirky Swedish automaker. As it turns out, SaabsUnited has decided to shed some light on what the company's future might have looked like, including some images and information that include full-scale mockups of the 9-3 Phoenix, which you see above.
In its waning years, Saab's lead designer Jason Castriota was working feverishly to deliver new products that built on the heritage of the brand while doing so at a lower cost and in a shorter time period than previous models. In the end, though, it sounds like the earliest that we could have seen any of these plans come to fruition was 2014. In addition to hatchback and convertible 9-3 variants, Castriota also created the Sonnett - a sporty-looking 2+2 that never made it past the design study phase.
Regardless of whether you're a diehard fan of the brand or if you were just pulling for the underdog, you'll want to head on over to SaabsUnited to check out a little more of what the future could have held for Saab.
Victor Muller to pay Sweden back taxes for Saab work
Thu, 03 Oct 2013Victor Muller, Saab's CEO from 2010 to 2011, has been ordered by the Swedish court to pay the back taxes he owes the country for his work at Saab, Autoweek and Volkskrant report. When he was the automaker's CEO he received a salary of about 8 million Swedish Krona ($1.25 million), which was recorded as a reward for consultancy work for a company in the US that Muller owns. The move allowed him to evade taxes for awhile, but the court has ordered him to pay taxes on his full salary.
Muller, who is also CEO of Spyker, and two other Saab executives were accused of accounting fraud in May, which took place in 2010 and 2011. According to reports, Muller maintains that he is not subject to taxes in Sweden.
