2001 Saab 9-3 Se Hatchback 4-door 2.0l on 2040-cars
Joliet, Illinois, United States
|
Up for sale is a low mileage Saab 9-3. I would describe the mechanical condition as being good but some issues need to be addressed. The engine, trans, and turbo all work fine. Blows cold A/C and the heat works fine. Some items that were just replaced. Has a new Serpentine Belt, Idler pulley, tires have less than 5k on them. It does have an oil leak. I was told that the Valve Cover Gasket needs to be replaced and I actually have the gasket. This is an easy fix if you like to work on cars or not very expensive if you take it to a mechanic. The Valve Cover gasket is right on top of the engine. The thermostat also needs to be replaced and I have that also. Body condition I would say good with some flaws. The driver's side front bumper does have some marks from being swiped in a parking lot, captured in pics. Also some small rust spots on edge of 2 doors. Interior is ok, passenger seat stitching came apart, info display has 90% dead pixels. Radio and temperature controls work but can't see the info. The radio, info display can be replaced with parts from ebay or Saab junk yard. All power windows work, 2 power locks are broke. The arm on the hatchback also needs to be replaced or a part needs to be fixed. I have been using a broom stick to hold up the hatchback if needed. Questions, I will try to answer the best I can.

Saab's never-was 9-3 gets a few better looks
Sat, 23 Mar 2013The recent glimpses we've been getting of the never-was Saab 9-3 Phoenix must be like rubbing salt on the wounds of all the Saab fans out there. If that's the case, diehard Saab enthusiasts might want to look away from this. SaabWorld has uncovered a handful of shots of what was to be the next-generation 9-3 hatchback, and boy does it look sharp.
Revealing a clearer look at what we previously saw in grainy images or as a full-scale model, these new pictures show what Jason Castriota had in mind for the new car. The front end is obviously inspired by Saab's Phoenix Concept, while the rear of the car pays homage to the Saab 900 hatchback.
We like the overall look. Let us know what you think in the Comments.
Super sleeper Saab 900 does 174 mph in the standing mile
Sun, 14 Apr 2013Somewhere behind Hennessey setting a new top speed record at this year's Texas Mile with its camouflage Ford GT, a stock-looking 1996 Saab 900T pulled up to the line to see what it could do. The dealer showroom wheels wouldn't offer any indication that the 2.0-liter four-cylinder under the hood was getting help from a Garrett turbocharger, a tuned ECU and E85 gas to put out 465 horsepower at the front wheels.
Knowing that, it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that at the other end of the mile the sky blue Swedish wonder was doing 174 miles per hour. The four-cylinder class at the Texas Mile has plenty such rockets, too, this Swede coming just behind a Dodge Neon that did 175.8 mph. You can watch the Saab do its thing in the video below.
New owners still struggling to secure rights to use Saab name
Wed, 27 Jun 2012Not to state the obvious, but if you're going to buy an automaker, it's probably advisable to secure rights to use the name.
That's what the new owners of Saab are trying to work out after buying the iconic Swedish automaker earlier this month, Automotive News reports.
National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS), the Chinese-Japanese conglomerate, acquired the company's physical assets, including its factory in Trollhättan, but didn't get rights to use the Saab name and logo. Truckmaker Scania and defense company Saab AB maintain the name and logo rights, and will need to sign off on NEVS using it, according to the publication. The parties are in discussions.
