2002 Saab 9 5 Turbo Linear Wagon on 2040-cars
Fairplay, Maryland, United States
|
Condition: Good except transmission problem. The car is in "limp home mode" due to a transmission issue. I took the car to a Saab mechanic who told me that there was an internal issue and that I should get a used/new transmission. My second opinion was from an AAMCO mechanic who told me that there was an internal electrical issue and that they can rebuild the transmission. I can drive the car using the shift like a manual transmission (as the Saab book said to do), start out in L, then shift into 3, then shift into 4, finally shifting into D. The car actually runs really good over 45MPH. I can get up to 75MPH without any problems. The AC is currently not working. The Saab mechanic told me that when the car goes into "Limp home mode" that non essential electrical items are shut down. He said when the transmission is fixed and the car is out of "limp home mode" that the ac should work just fine. I did check the freon levels and the levels are fine giving no indication of leaks. The interior is grey, leather. The leather is in very good condition. The faux wood does have a faded look as well as some chipping by the gear shift. Features: heated seats, power windows, power locks, sunroof, glove box can become an cooler, cd player (it had the multiple cd player in the rear but someone took that out), cassette player, alloy wheels, running day lights History: I do not know much about this vehicle's history. I bought the car at the auto auction 2 weeks ago. I had a body technician check out the car and he said the front end was replaced. He said that the title has a flag of salvage so that the owner probably junked the car given an accident to the front end (just speculation, not facts). I found a car history report which indicated salvage as of 2009, however the car was driven and inspected as of 2012 and 2014 (evidence from receipts and inspection stickers). My plan was to drive it however I was not banking on the transmission not working. I do drive the vehicle but I would rather have it fixed so that I don't get stranded somewhere and since that is not in my budget right now I am just trying to sell it for what I paid for it. Shipping and payment: I accept Paypal for payment or a cashier's check. Please remit $500.00 deposit via Paypal after 48 hrs of winning bid. I am located in Hagerstown, MD so local pickup is appreciated. If you are close by and would like me to drive the car to you please email me and we can chat about that possibility. The car is being sold AS-IS. If you have questions please ask me prior to bidding. Thank you! |

Spyker and Youngman sign deal, plan to build D8 SUV and Phoenix-based range
Mon, 27 Aug 2012It appears Spyker is strengthen its ties and carmaking ability with Chinese carmaker Youngman. This comes in the wake of the brand's latest dealings with a $3 billion lawsuit against General Motors regarding the demise of Saab.
Youngman is reportedly investing €10,000,000 ($12.5M USD) for a 29.9-percent stake in the company. The shares are being sold for €0.05 (6.3 cents) each, representing a fully diluted share. Youngman has said it will not take on more than the 29.9-percent stake.
Additionally, Youngman will invest €25,000,000 ($31M) for the development of an all-new Spyker vehicle, called the D8 P2P, named for the Peking-to-Paris rally. The vehicle had been shown as a concept by Spyker previously, but things had been quiet since then. It appears Spyker will now build the uniquely styled D8 Concept shown above. The vehicle is to launch at the end of 2014 and carry a price of $250,000 per vehicle.
3 former Saab execs charged with tax evasion
Mon, 20 May 2013The Associated Press reports three former Saab executives have been arrested on charges of accounting fraud. Swedish prosecutor Olof Sahlgren has refused to identify the individuals, but says they're suspected of attempting to evade taxes by falsifying Saab accounts between 2010 and 2011 during the Spyker years. Other reports indicate the parties involved include former General Counsel to Saab Kristina Geers (seen to the left of former CEO Victor Muller, above), a 15-year-veteran of the company - her husband, Eric, was the company's communications director for 9 years as well.
Saab filed for bankruptcy in 2011, and was purchased shortly thereafter by National Electric Vehicle Sweden. If convicted, the trio could face up to four years in prison for their crimes under Swedish law.
Saab to reintroduce 9-3 SportCombi as Phoenix development continues
Sun, 27 Apr 2014The saga of Saab goes to show that you can't keep a good automaker down. Founded back in 1947 (the same year, incidentally, as Ferrari, TVR and Maserati defector OSCA), Saab split off from its aerospace division, merged with Scania trucks, was subsequently picked up by General Motors, then pawned off onto Spyker before its current Chinese owners brought it back out of bankruptcy. Now under the auspices of National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS), Saab has official restarted production of the 9-3 sedan, but what are its plans for the future?
In correspondence with Autoblog, NEVS communications director Mikael Ostlund gave us an idea of what to expect. First of all, NEVS is living up to its name by launching an electric version of the 9-3. As we reported a couple of weeks ago, the 9-3 EV currently is undergoing a pilot launch in the Chinese city of Qingdao (which owns part of NEVS) before being rolled out in other markets around the world. But that's not all NEVS has planned for Saab.
The reborn Swedish automaker also plans to relaunch the 9-3 SportCombi to supplement the 9-3 sedan. The wagon version was part of the second-gen 9-3's rollout in the early 2000s, offering increased cargo space and versatility - particularly vital since GM had seen it fit to replace the previous hatchback bodystyle favored by the brand faithful with a more traditional trunked form to lure new buyers into the fold. Although Ostlund confirmed that NEVS has "the option of adding the convertible" back into the lineup, nut has yet to decide on if and when it will do so.
