HELLO! BEFORE YOU READ MY ENTIRE DESCRIPTION, PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO LOOK AT THE FOLLOWING 3 SAAB 900'S FOR SALE!!!! FROM $12,000 to $22,000!! If you are EXPECTING A CAR LIKE THAT YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY THAT!!!!!! 
ITEM # 380608401500 - ITEM # 140944669514 - ITEM # 190821012149
NOW, IF YOU ARE STILL READING, 
AND YOU DON'T WANT A $1,000-$2,000 MONEY PIT SAAB 900 THEN THIS IS THE CAR FOR YOU!!!!! RARE DESIRABLE 5 SPEED MANUAL!! THIS CAR SAYS 197,700 BUT ODOMETER ROLLED 5,500 MILES ON MY 2,700 TRIP!! SO I KNOW THAT REAL MILES ARE REALLY MUCH LESS, PERHAPS @ 100K. THE SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE, FUEL GAUGE AND CLOCK WORK AS THEY SHOULD!

I have no idea how long this has persisted - the previous owner described it rolling double miles as well. THIS WOULD EXPLAIN THE LOW AUTOCHECK SCORE - which I always take with a grain of salt!! I would much rather have a car that has recently had over $5,000.00 of FULLY DOCUMENTED REPAIRS!!! 

I HAVE ALL RECEIPTS!!!

AUTOCHECK DOES SHOW NO ACCIDENTS!! 

I am 47 years old and have owned over 20 of these classic 900 convertibles!!!!! My first was a 1983 TURBO in 1986 in college..... boy was I cutting edge!! I have owned my 2002 VIGGEN CONVERTIBLE FOR THE LAST DECADE AS MY DAILY DRIVER! (230hp and 32mpg highway). I LIVED IN EUROPE FOR 15 YEARS. I OWNED MY 2 FERRARI 348 SPIDERS AND HUMMER 1 CONVERTIBLES FOR 5 YEARS EACH! I HAVE 5 CHILDREN 4,6,8,10,12 WHICH KEEP ME VERY BUSY - I LOVE TO WORK ON EUROPEAN CARS AS A HOBBY TO SPEND PERSONAL TIME IN THE GARAGE TO KEEP MY SANITY!!!!! OUR MERCEDES 2000 ML55 NOT PICTURED IS THE AMG 7 SEAT FAMILY CAR for the last 10yrs. I HAVE A PASSION FOR GREAT CARS AT GREAT PRICES, Unfortunately I paid the entire $70,000 for the ML55!! BUT FERRARI'S AT 60K OR SAAB'S AT UNDER 7K are much better buys. This 1990 WAS $33,000 NEW and still N.A.D.A. books at $8,850 or even $6,275 at average retail. 

THIS IS NOT AN AVERAGE EXAMPLE!!!!! 

NOW THE STORY ON THIS FANTASTIC 

214H - CHERRY RED 1990 TURBO CONVERTIBLE!!

I LOVE TO FLY OUT, BUY CARS AND MAKE A ROAD TRIP ESCAPE OF IT! AGAIN, A SANITY ISSUE AFTER TRAVELING THE WORLD FOR 17 YEARS!!! (IN THIS CASE 2,700 MILES FROM PHILADELPHIA, PA TO UTAH). THE PICTURES ARE AT THE WASHINGTON D.C. TEMPLE (TO VISIT INSIDE WAS THE UNDERLYING PURPOSE OF THIS VISIT) OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS AND JUST OUTSIDE OF VAIL, COLORADO.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK ON ALL SPEEDS, squirters stopped working on trip home, I KNOW the LITTLE pump works, could be that the control arm on steering column is the culprit? The antenna ONLY raises and lowers by hand BUT WORKS PERFECTLY! The 2 front seats move manually and ARE NOT ELECTRIC! The extra modules on the dash are NOT my personal favorite - I LOVE FACTORY ORIGINAL - BUT can be removed easily! They are completely functional and give air/fuel mixture readings, voltage metering and PSI turbo boost readings. 

PLEASE NOTICE THE EXTREMELY CLEAN UNDER CARRIAGE! NO RUST! 

After the car has been sitting for a while, there are small drops of engine oil and power steering fluid - very reminiscent of my 35yr old Harley Davidson. Cosmetic - NO NEED to check fluid levels as there is NO OIL USAGE OR BURNING while driving!!! THAT SHOULD BE EVERYTHING!!

Spyker files $3 billion lawsuit against General Motors over Saab's demise

Mon, 06 Aug 2012

"Smack." That's the sound of Spyker's process server dropping a big ol' pile of legal documents on the doorstep of The Renaissance Center, home of General Motors - or wherever GM's attorneys live during business hours. Contained therein is a Complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan and demanding a jury trial, that seeks $3 billion in damages due to "the unlawful actions GM took to avoid competition with Saab Automobile in the Chinese market." Spyker accuses GM of "tortiously interfering" with Saab's business relationship with Chinese automaker Zhejiang Youngman Lotus Automobile (Youngman), actions that Spyker CEO Victor Muller (above) said "deliberately drove Saab Automobile into bankruptcy."
(From Wikipedia: "Tortious interference, also known as intentional interference with contractual relations, in the common law of torts, occurs when a person intentionally damages the plaintiff's contractual or other business relationships.")
The interference in question specifically refers to the very last potential deal, called the Framework Agreement, that Spyker worked out with Youngman. With lots of GM engineering embedded into the 9-4X and 9-5, The General had the right to approve any Saab partnership that would involve the transfer of GM intellectual property. Spyker had been rebuffed over every previous deal with a Chinese firm, including two bids by Youngman, due to GM concerns over its IP getting into Chinese hands and having to face Chinese-market competitors using its technology. The Complaint alleges that the Framework Agreement would have put a firewall around all GM IP - Youngman would only work on Saab's Phoenix platform, said to be just about free of GM tech, and would have no access to 9-3, 9-4X or 9-5 technology until after Saab ceased all ties to GM.

Even Ferrari swept up in latest Takata recall expansion

Fri, May 27 2016

The scope of Takata's deadly airbag problems continues to widen. Eight manufacturers announced recalls Friday that affect more than 12 million vehicles, according to documents filed with federal regulators. The automakers include Honda, which is recalling 4.5 million units, Fiat Chrysler with 4.3 million, Toyota with 1.65 million, and Subaru, which is recalling almost 400,000. Some of these cars include the Saab 9-2x and Pontiac Vibe that Toyota and Subaru made for General Motors. Mazda will recall 730,000 vehicles and Nissan has 400,000 affected units. The smallest numbers were posted by Mitsubishi, with 38,000 Lancers manufactured from 2006 to 2007, and as a noteworthy high-end manufacturer, Ferrari is calling back 2,800 vehicles. These are all US-market cars. Beyond America, the Japanese Transport Ministry has announced seven million additional vehicles will be recalled, which means 19.6 million vehicles across the globe are affected by recalls announced. The defects have been traced to an insufficiently manufactured airbag inflator, which lacks a drying agent that would prevent the inflators from deteriorating over time. Thirteen deaths have been linked to the faulty airbags, which have become unstable and are prone to exploding and showering vehicle occupants with lethal amounts of metal shrapnel. A private equity firm, KKR & Co., has been named in a possible buyout of the struggling Takata.

Future Classic: 1999-2002 Saab 9-3 Viggen

Mon, Jan 30 2023

Given the company’s now-defunct status, you could argue that all Saabs are future classics. Even the final round of cars from the era of General Motors ownership deserve their place in history. Seriously, how hot was the last 9-5? Handsome design and quirky features were hallmarks of the Saab brand, and its cars felt every bit as premium as its primary European competitors. But while other luxury carmakers put great effort into full lineups of performance cars, Sweden only produced the odd sporty Saab every once in a while. One of our favorites was the 9-3 Viggen from the turn of the century, and itÂ’s a car that still makes us swoon today. Why is the Saab 9-3 Viggen a future classic? Saab's whole "born from jets" tagline never really made much sense, but at least the 9-3 Viggen's name was a nod to the company's aerospace roots. The Swedish word "Viggen" translates to "thunderbolt" in English, and this name was used on the Saab 37 Viggen aircraft that entered service in the early 1970s. MotorWeek | Retro Review: '99 Saab Viggen The 9-3 Viggen used a turbocharged 2.3-liter inline-four engine, most notably remembered for its eyebrow-raising 20 psi of boost pressure. Rated at 225 horsepower – which was later bumped up to 230 hp – and 252 pound-feet of torque, this engine was paired exclusively with a five-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive. Stiffer suspension components, firmer dampers, stronger driveshafts, a heavy-duty clutch and a revised exhaust were also part of the package. The Viggen was relatively quick, with Saab quoting a 0-to-60-mph time of around 6.5 seconds. However, the 9-3 Viggen is largely remembered for things like its ridiculous turbo lag and torque steer – characteristics that kind of made this car hilarious to drive, even if they took away from overall sharpness and composure. What is the ideal example of the Saab 9-3 Viggen? Saab offered the 9-3 Viggen as a three-door hatchback, five-door hatchback and two-door convertible. And while this car is most commonly remembered in its launch shade, Lightning Blue, Saab offered the Viggen in black, gray, red, silver and yellow. You could even spec the interior with blue, orange or tan leather accents. Arguably the most iconic 9-3 Viggen spec is a Lightning Blue three-door hatch, but the other colors are far more rare. WeÂ’ve got a major soft spot for a Monte Carlo Yellow five-door, but really, you canÂ’t go wrong.
