Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Unbelievably few scratches, chips and defects for a 21 year old car. Small hood indent, and drivers side door seam crease detailed in photos. This is the best '92 I've seen anywhere, and I make it my business to know. It has however been driven a good bit, and despite having been 80-90% garage kept, wear and tear is certainly not invisible here, in line with what I hope you would expect. Please get in touch for any details you desire."
- Saab lovers, enjoy! One of the best '92s in existence - inside, outside, mechanically, headliner, dashboard, period. I've updated that pesky throttle computer to the version they used in the later Aeros - bingo! Numerous subtle performance upgrades including exhaust, ECM, and suspension. The wheels - oh, the wheels. I've even got an extra set, and for that matter, an extra running(ish) numbers (and paint) matching '92 turbo parts car, either or both of which I can offer you at additional cost. Alas, it seems I'm getting out of the game... time for you to take advantage! Oh yeah, and it goes like a bat out of hell. The Swedish plate on the front is a shortening of the name I've come up with... Svenskapow!
- The paint and body are in Very VERY Good condition. I've tried to detail all noticeable issues in photos. Things that were impractical or impossible to photograph are listed here. There are approx. 3 tiny chips on the front sides of things here and there, the airdam is completely in tact, and looking quite good, though it has touched the ground on very seldom occasion. There is a sub-dime-sized bubble that is miles away from actually breaking through the paint on the front flare of the driver's side rear wheel-well, and that's really it. Just Look At It!!!
- The two mechanical/electrical issues I am aware of at this time are that the SRS sensor light blinks in the instrument cluster, and that the cruise control doesn't work. The cruise went with my throttle computer update, and as the computer that runs the cruise lives right next door to the throttle control unit, under the driver's seat, I suspect this function can be restored simply - and I know a guy who could help, if you don't.
- Pricing on extras will be as follows. Spare set of pristine identical wheels including hard to find low profile Blizzaks with under 1000 miles on them - $900. Spare set of nice Saab Alloy Wheels of a smaller diameter with low mileage winter tires - $700. Identical (save for the interior color) Great Shape Parts Car - $1200
- I am the third caring and loving owner of this piece of automotive art. I purchased it two and a half years ago from the second owner in Chicago, and while keeping it garaged and in pristine shape, I've put less than 5000 miles on it myself.
- I encourage longer distance buyers to take this listing seriously. If you're outside of a 600 mile radius of Pittsburgh, please get in touch to talk pickup/delivery plans before bidding. Otherwise I can drive to you (potentially at shared expense depending on distance), drive to meet you halfway, or make the car available for pickup at the Pittsburgh Airport. I have complete confidence in the car's readiness for even cross-country-sized road trips.
- Work done within the past month - Brand new uniroyal low profile tigerpaw all season tires, Full Synthetic Oil Change, Air Conditioning Dye and Recharge, Full PA State and County Emissions Inspection, and a brand new NOS Saab Headlight Switch.
- Clutch is in Great Shape and has a confidence inspiring middle to low engagement point. Groundbreaking (for 1992) electronic throttle and integrated traction control system are in full working order, and the traction control can be tastefully deleted by many clever Saab shops around the country. Since chipped, horsepower has been in the 220-240 range, aftermarket suspension is tight and quite level in the corners, full stainless exhaust looks great and sounds even better (on the pleasant side of tasteful but still throaty). This engine loves the 2500-4500rpm range, and so does the boost gauge. I have service records going back to the dawn of time.
- If you're looking for a nice, fast, fun, and practical vintage Saab, what more could you want? I'm sure someone of you can answer that question, so get in touch, and I'll do my best to get you what you need in terms of info, assurances, and additional photos.
- WINNER TAKES THE RIDE IN THIS NO-RESERVE AUCTION - BID WITH CONFIDENCE, THIS IS THE REAL DEAL!!!!!

Chunk of ice smashes man's windshield
Tue, Jan 5 2016Driving a car piled with snow isn't just lazy, it's dangerous. A driver on Interstate 495 South in Massachusetts learned that the hard way last week after a huge chunk of ice flew off the top of an SUV and onto his windshield. Jeffrey Cote's dashboard camera was running as he drove his Saab 9-5 Aero Wagon down the freeway in Haverhill, MA, Wednesday morning. He was following an SUV in the left hand lane. The SUV doesn't appear to have too much accumulation on it, but the owners clearly didn't remove the snow and ice from the very top of the vehicle. A large chunk of ice flew off the top of the SUV, spun through the air and shattered Cotes windshield. Cote's must be one of the cooler heads on Massachusetts' roads. He didn't swerve, or swear or even gasp. Despite being unable to see the road and covered in glass Cotes safely moved over to the right lanes and safely pulled off on to the shoulder after the accident. The ice not only totally destroyed Cote's windshield but damaged a wiper arm and his side mirror as well. "If I had braked harder, I could have avoided impact," Cotes wrote in the video description. "But it initially appeared the piece was going to fall in front of me." Cotes couldn't read the driver's license plate on the footage and told CBS Boston that he doesn't think the other driver even realizes what occurred. He told the news station he hopes the video reminds people to do the right thing and clear the snow off their cars. "Just a few seconds, just try to slam as much ice as possible off your roof," Cotes told CBS Boston. "Because, it could have gone a lot worse, and it could save someone's life if you do a better job cleaning," Cote said. News Source: CBS Boston Saab Driving Safety Videos snow winter driving cold
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.
Son Surprises Mom With Dream Car
Thu, Aug 14 2014We can't get enough of these dream car-reveals. Here's the latest one: A son wanted to treat his mom to the car she's had her eye on for years, but it wasn't a restored Porsche or a fancy 1957 Chevy Bel Air. This mom wanted something special – a 1973 Saab 99 EMS painted disco-fever copper. Ever since he was a kid, Corey Wadden's mom has wanted the Saab. Wadden writes on his YouTube video that she first hopped in the driver's seat of one of these odd retro rides while working as a cleaning lady. One of her clients would toss her the keys and let her move the car. She fell in love. After a year of searching and saving, this nominee for best son in the world brought his mom down to the parking lot, where her dream ride awaited. First, he handed her an envelope with a picture of the car and the keys, a dead giveaway. She quickly put two and two together, and lost it before making it to the parking lot. She is so happy and full of gratitude that she actually drops to her knees when he opens the door. Wadden writes on his page that his mom lost her job two-and-a-half years ago and hasn't had a reliable car in years. This car aims not just to get her mobile again, but lift her spirits. It's also part of the Toronto entrepreneur's promise to become a millionaire by the time he is 25 to help his mother retire. Related Gallery The Best Cars For Empty Nesters Weird Car News Saab
