I am selling a 2002 Saab 9-3 SE Turbo Convertible; it is an automatic and the car runs very strong. This car has been pretty much been gone through; we replaced all that has been worn internally from an engine rebuild with new valves, new turbo and water pump, all the brakes and tires, complete A/C system, front and rear suspension to include the tie rods, control arms and ball joints not to mention numerous seals, fuel pump and filter, alternator, battery , brake lines and fittings all from Saab shop. I am sure there are more things that have been replaced and will furnish all info to the foreign car shop who has done everything to it as well. The original radio was replaced professionally only due to my son wanting a more updated system to include a USB and Ipod hook up. All of the LCD pixels in the SID and temperature control units are in perfect working order due to having new units also installed. The interior has normal wear and tear with just some fading and wear on the drivers more than passengers, there is a small burn mark as seen in picture of rear seat that was there when purchased. This car was bought for my son who wanted a convertible for his first car and since we are a Saab family we made sure the car was gone through by trusted Saab mechanics we have used previously and currently still do. This car only uses Mobil 1 and premium fuel.

Now my son wants a hard top Saab sedan as he is getting ready for college, thus the reason it is for sale now. I won't even throw out blue book or NADA values, the car is mechanically sound  for the next 100k miles as we have gotten 390k out of previous Saab's in the past. This will make a great first car for anyone or for someone who loves these cars and knows the safety and longevity of these vehicles.

GM recalls 500K Chevy Camaros for ignition-switch defect

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

General Motors issued a recall for more than a half million Chevrolet Camaros on Friday morning because of an ignition-switch safety hazard that mirrors the one at the center of the company's current crisis.
The problem affects Camaro models from the 2010 to 2014 model years. Approximately 464,712 cars are impacted in the United States, and 511,528 overall in North America. GM will alter the Camaro key to a more standard design, and will notify car owners with a recall notice in the mail.
In an announcement, the company said the ignition switches on the Camaros are fundamentally different parts than the older ignition switches found on defective cars that are responsible for killing at least 13 people and causing 54 crashes.

Saab 9-3 production has restarted

Sun, 01 Dec 2013

If you're one of the small cadre of Saab drivers, first of all, kudos to you. Because as Top Gear pointed out, Saab drivers are among the most intellectual drivers out there. Secondly, we've got good news for you, because the 9-3 has officially resumed production at the Trollhättan plant in Sweden.
For those of you who may not have followed the story, a quick refresher: Founded in 1947, Saab Automobile AB was an independent automaker until 1989 when General Motors began the decade-long process acquiring it. Unable to make it profitable, GM sold Saab to Spyker in 2010, but that Dutch automaker proved unable to make a go of it, either, and finally shut it down a year later. Much of Saab's assets were acquired by National Electric Vehicle Sweden, which in turn is partially owned by the Chinese city of Qingdao, which pledged to get production back online by the end of the year.
NEVS has apparently made good on its promise, bringing 600 workers back to the factory to resume production of the 9-3 much as it was when a workforce of 3,500 labored on it and its stablemates prior to the bankruptcy. The reborn 9-3 will be sold in Sweden and in China, with an electric version to bring some other updates sometime next year.

Saab 900 SPG is the latest Petrolicious love story

Thu, 03 Oct 2013

The latest video from the crew at Petrolicious covers one funky Swede - a 1989 Saab 900 SPG. Produced from 1978 to 1998, the 900 enjoyed a long history, and thanks to its iconic look, it's quickly becoming a modern classic for the off-kilter car enthusiast. The SPG, short for Special Performance Group, makes this a particularly rare find, with owner Jordan Melville saying, "I didn't even realize what I had at the time."
Melville gives a rundown of his life with the 900 and his passion for Saab overall, even reflecting on that dark day that saw the Swedish brand closed its doors. As always, the videography is excellent and the story is intriguing in this latest video from Petrolicious. You can view the entire video down below.
