I am selling my Saab 9000 CS. Please note: it is being listed for parts or repair since it has several large issues.
As far as I know I am the second owner other then the dealer that sold it to me, and I have had it for six years, and it has been a fun car to drive.
It now needs lots of work and it isn't cost effective for me to have all the issues repaired. I'm listing it because another Saab enthusiast might be
interested in it for the parts, or have the time and skills to repair it. I would prefer that to seeing it sold and crushed for scrap. The low starting price
reflects this. It is currently sitting in my driveway, and it does start and run. It has always started even in the winter or after sitting for months
in the summer while we were on vacation. The motor sounds good and runs strong. The transmission is okay, but like many of these 9000's will occasionally have
shifting issues. I just drove it the 30 miles from the repair shop home and it ran great, with no issues. The major problem is the brakes, and the
main reason I'm now selling it. They are worn out and need to be totally redone. I would drive it, but probably it should be trailered or towed for safety reasons.
Here are the problems that I am aware of: Bad brakes (the repair shop gave me an estimate of $1,200 for parts and repairs) he did find that all the parts are
available. There is a crack in the windshield, the right front panel is damaged (the work of a new driver) I do have a good used replacement light to replace the broken
one with. Small rust patches and scrapes in a few spots--see pictures of the major ones. The AC no longer works, but the heat works fine. The front tires have good tread,
the back tires are fairly new with more tread. Heck, I just filled it up with gas before taking it into the shop to be checked and that is worth the $50 alone.
I've attached many photos of the car and details of the various issues. Please contact me if you want others or additional information. Do not bid unless you are
prepared to pay the first $200 with Paypal within three days of the end of the auction. I hold a clear Illinois title for the car. After you have won and paid, I will
gladly hold the car for as long as needed until you are able to pick it up.

Saab US bankruptcy plan gets legal green-light
Thu, 18 Jul 2013It feels utterly bizarre that we're still talking about Saab, but Reuters is reporting that the bankrupt Swedish manufacturer's American arm has gotten approval from the US Bankruptcy Court to liquidate its assets and pay back creditors. As part of the plan, secured creditors like Ally Financial will receive full repayment. Unsecured creditors, consisting of those affected by abandoned leases and contracts will get anywhere from 25 to 82 percent of their money back.
There are currently $77 million in unsecured claims, according to Reuters, but that number doesn't include claims from former Saab dealers. Naturally, the entire affair is full of lawyers and legalese. A trust formed on the Saab side will be negotiating with creditors and their affiliates in an attempt to reduce claims against Saab. This sounds like the start of a long and sordid affair...
Saab begins 9-3 EV pilot production
Thu, 10 Apr 2014To say that Saab has had a tough time lately would be like saying that it's been a little colder than usual this winter. After General Motors finally gave up and sold it to Spyker in 2010, Saab declared bankruptcy the following year. GM successfully blocked Spyker from selling Saab to Chinese automaker Youngman the following year, but ultimately it ended up in the hands of another Chinese consortium called NEVS. Standing as it does for National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the new owners promised not only to restart production of the long-suffering 9-3, but also to turn it into an electric vehicle. And that's just what it's doing.
The latest news coming out of Sweden indicates that NEVS/Saab has started building the first examples of the 9-3 EV. These first 200 or so examples are set to be shipped off to Qingdao - the Chinese city that is home to the Tsingtao brewery, hosted the sailing components of the 2008 summer games on Beijing, was supposed to host an IndyCar race in 2012 before it was canceled, and also itself just happens to own 22 percent of NEVS.
These first EVs have their batteries mounted down low in the chassis for a low center of gravity and have a range of about 20 miles on a full charge. That's absolutely paltry compared to the other EVs on the market: a Nissan Leaf will travel more than four times that distance, and a Tesla Model S will go ten times farther on a charge.
Nicolas Cage flogs Saab-based Senova from Beijing Auto [w/video]
Mon, 13 May 2013BAIC has officially pulled the covers off of its new Senova D Series sedan for China. The four-door is based on the old Saab 9-5 and boasts a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. Local buyers can get their hands on the machine for around $22,745 at current conversion rates. Other engine options include a turbocharged 1.8-liter four cylinder as well as turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder, and a wide range of safety equipment comes standard on every trim except the very base model. Those goodies include a tire pressure monitoring system, active head restraints, blind spot detection, driver fatigue detection and parking sensors.
The Senova nameplate serves every model based on former Saab architectures, including the Epsilon, GM2900 and GM2400 platforms as well as engine and transmission tech. In order to promote its new products, BAIC has hired Hollywood staple Nicolas Cage to serve as the company's brand ambassador. Cage stars in the Senova-heavy Town of Car Legends action-packed video short (directed by Olivier Megaton of Transporter 3 and Taken 2 fame) which you can view by scrolling below.
