Name: Steve

Location: VT

Means of contact: EMAIL: vtatver@comcast.net

Price: $2500 as is, $2000 without 17" wheels

Description: Posting this for my dad, I don't know a whole lot about this car other than I was pleasantly surprised by how well it drove last time I was in it. Email him for any more info.

1999 9-3 coupe. Black on black.

165k

5spd

This is a good car all around, but not perfect.

The bad stuff:

-CEL is on.

-SRS light is on.

-A little bit of cosmetic rust. IIRC it is only the doors, but I have not looked at the car in a while. Any rust elsewhere is certainly pretty minor.

The Good:

-The car has 9-3SE body work all around, as well as a black leather 2002 9-3SE seats.

-TD04, cross flow IC

-Viggen clutch

-Stage 3 tune (18+PSI)

-Rear muffler removed

-Bilstein HD's all around

-GS rear swaybar (I THINK 22mm)

-Poly bushings

-EBC brake pads (I THINK Yellowstuff) with Wilwood fluid

-17" wheels (the name of which escapes me) with great tires

The A/C has been removed... could be good or bad depending on how you look at it...

Like I said, I'm not positive on some of the details of this car but, objectively, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it. He wants $2500 as it sits on the 17's, or $2000 without them. Great deal, IMO.

Pictures:

Only pic I can find, from late last summer. Looks the same now.

As said, my dads' car... not mine. You're better off emailing him for specifics.

Holy wheel gap, Batman!

Looks like a great deal for the price, though.

I should specify... this is way up in the northwest corner of VT, too, just to be as far away from everything else as possible...

Nice Shelby and not a bad looking Saab. GLWS

The Shelby, a definite project, has since been sold (his 2nd time selling it, the first being when I was "this tall")

Grabbed a few crappy pics of the Saab today.
