This vehicle is consignment from previous owner. Previous owner is on assignment oversea now. His original contract was for a year but just extended for 3 years recently. He decided to sell his beloved wagon which was in the storage for over a year since he left country.  We got the key from the owner and brought the car out from storage. just cleaned up. and put up on ebay. 

The car has Aero trim level with Touring package (Xenon headlights, Parking sensor, Harmon Kardon Audio system, Electric auto-dimming rear view mirror with HOMELINK garage opener) and rare manual transmission. Black Exterior with Black Interior. Aero trim specific 'darth vader' Sports front seats as well as rear heated seats.

Mechanical: Cars runs & drives. We only drove short distance up & down the trailer and cleaning shop. It has ABS/BRAKE/ESP warning lights on after push the brake pedal. Saab scanner tells us ESP (ABS) module pressure switch has intermittent failure. The car's owner doesn't want us to fix it since it's on consignment. Brakes rotor has rust due to sitting on the storage for over a year. We did oil change with Mobile 1 0w-40 synthetic oil. the owner did oil change with synthetic every 5K miles as well. Exhaust has some leak from flex pipe. might need engine damper mount & transmission mount in near future (Common problem with saabs). vehicle was running over an hour as idle after changed the oil. No over heating or check engine light was shown. No smoking when starts up. Due to ABS/ESP pressure sensor error, we didn't take out the car for the test drive. Sensor itself is not too expensive but labor (since brake lines has to be blended) was expected to be 3~4 hours. therefore, owner decided not to fix it. currently brakes are working fine on short drive. If you're handy man, you can change ABS/ESP module cheaply and you gonna have nice rare aero manual wagon with low miles!

National Electric Vehicle stops Saab 9-3 production amidst financing woes

Tue, 20 May 2014

It seems that quirky, Swedish automaker Saab might be on life support yet again. Its owner, National Electric Vehicle Sweden, has announced that it's reducing its workforce and temporarily halting production of the 9-3 due to financial problems. NEVS was only building six cars a day, anyway.
The company put out a press release admitting its economic woes, but it still appeared hopeful. NEVS claims it's developing "a new platform on the Phoenix architecture," and it has a frame agreement with an international automotive OEM. It didn't give any specific details about either one of these assertions though. According to The Wall Street Journal, NEVS needs the partnership to lower development costs in order to stay afloat. Saab spokesperson Mikael Ostlund told Autoblog in an email that the stop in production of the 9-3 in Trollhättan would last four weeks.
NEVS says it's in negotiation to sell a portion of the company to an automotive company. Its current monetary woes are caused by shareholder Qingbo Investment Company not financing the company as agreed. "We plan to have the results of the discussions at latest during June," said Ostlund.

Saab's latest Chinese owners facing their own credit woes

Sat, 16 Aug 2014

Poor Saab, it can't seem to get a break. General Motors couldn't seem to make a go of it, neither could Spyker, and now it seems that its latest owner is encountering some problems of its own.
That owner, of course, is National Electric Vehicle Sweden, a Swedish holding company owned by Chinese investors. NEVS recently restarted production at the Saab plant in Trollhättan, Sweden, and had some ambitious plans for the brand's revival, but it appears to have run out of cash.
This according to a report in The Wall Street Journal, which discovered that NEVS is having trouble paying its suppliers. One such supplier, called Labo Test, has reportedly been owed some $22,000 by NEVS since February, and without payment, petitioned the Swedish government to place NEVS into bankruptcy proceedings. If that seems a little extreme to you over twenty-two grand, it would seem the parties agree, as the petition has reportedly since been withdrawn.

Former Saab chairman Muller faces summons in tax inquiry

Thu, 23 May 2013

Former Saab Chairman Victor Muller may be called in for questioning as part of an official inquiry into suspected tax evasion by three of the automaker's former executives. A prosecutor has officially named former CEO Jan-Ake Jonsson and two other executives in the investigation, and official court documents say that Muller will be called in by the Financial Crimes Unit. According to Reuters, prosecutors are currently looking into allegations that the executives worked to dodge taxes between 2010 and 2011, when the automaker finally went into bankruptcy.
The Truth About Cars reports the investigation may center around the $540,000 paid as consulting fees to Latin America Tug Holding NV, a company Muller owns. It's possible that the Swedish authorities believe the Saab executives were using the tug boat company as a tax haven, and that the automaker should have paid taxes and social security contributions on the money. Muller has not been charged.
Meanwhile, Muller is defending his earnings in a new interview with Automotive News. Having come under fire for his $773,000 salary at Saab, the Spyker CEO said his pay was commensurate with an executive running a company with 4,000 employees.
