Saab 9 5, 9-5, 2000, Great Driving Car That Still Looks Good, No Reserve! on 2040-cars
Granville, Massachusetts, United States
|
This has been a very good car for us over the past few years, I have put 50k miles on it and it has never let me down. Previous to that it was owned by my cousin, who also had great service from this car. It's a reliable car that drives well and looks good. Recently replaced the complete exhaust turbo back, so there should be no issues for the life of the car. CT Emissions good until 11/15.
Clear coat peeling on hood and cracked paint/bondo on passenger front fender (have another fender that you can have if you want to do the paint work), otherwise very very nice body for the age and mileage, door dents and scratches are minimal. Black/charcoal leather interior is in great shape. It does have a check engine light for a P0171 code that I haven't gotten off, but does not effect drivability. Also has an intermittent key issue that requires a button press to bypass, have the parts to provide just hasn't been bothersome enough to replace, and the usual dropped pixels in the display. We've replaced it with a 2005 Saab. Once you've owned Saabs, we're a multiple Saab family, you'll understand that these really are exceptional cars for the money. Our last trip in the car before we moved on to the newer car was well over 500 miles round trip. Never thought twice about taking this car. AC works great, tires are good, suspension is all there, get in it and drive it, see if you can figure out what the life expectancy is, our previous Saab went over 300k. Small issues aside it's a great car for the money. Wouldn't hesitate to take it on any road trip, 26mpg, quick, comfortable. Can be seen in Granville, MA. |

GM denies Spyker claims in $3B Saab lawsuit
Tue, 02 Oct 2012Reuters reports General Motors has dismissed claims by Spyker outlined in a $3 billion lawsuit. Spyker alleged GM deliberately bankrupted Saab by preventing a deal with Chinese investor Zhejiang Youngman Lotus. GM, meanwhile, filed a response with the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan saying that as the former owner of Saab, GM had the legal right to approve the deal with Youngman. But Spyker's lawsuit claimed GM's refusal to approve the deal with Youngman stemmed from the fact that the American automaker didn't want to create a competitor in China.
GM has said the issue stemmed more from the fact that it would stop licensing its technology to Saab or stop building vehicles for the manufacturer in the event it was bought by Youngman. Since Saab built its own platform that didn't use any GM tech, Spyker says that argument is meritless.
The lawsuit has Spyker seeking $3 billion in compensatory damages, though that number could swell with interest, punitive damages and legal fees, as well. Victor Muller, Spyker chief executive, has said the lawsuit is being funded by an anonymous third party. That party will share in any settlement. Youngman has refused to comment on whether or not it's footing the legal bill.
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
Vampire Weekend singer responds to burning Saab controversy [w/video]
Fri, 29 Mar 2013Last week, we tipped you off about Vampire Weekend and their new music video for the song Diane Young, a short film that consists entirely of setting fire to two perfectly nice-looking Saab 900 automobiles. The indie rock band's video - viewable by scrolling down - predictably triggered the internet ire of classic car enthusiasts - Saabophiles in particular - and word of the unrest eventually got back to the band itself.
According to music site Spinner (nb: owned by Autoblog parent AOL), the group was "stunned" at the backlash - enough that lead singer Ezra Koenig felt compelled to respond himself. According to Koenig, the band was under the impression that their record company was "looking to purchase the cheapest, oldest cars possible; they weren't trying to buy a beautiful perfect condition car." By way of apology, Koenig even goes so far as to note that bandmate Rostam Batmanglij is a keen fan of Saab.
Other reports have claimed that the cars may have been purchased under false pretenses, sold by owners who "wanted to see them go to a nice new home," but Koenig takes issue with that characterization, countering that he understood that the cars had substantial electrical problems.
