It's a 99 Saab 9-3 convertible, 5 spd, 140k miles, rides awesome. Only thing wrong with it it's that it needs a new motor mount.... I payed $1700

A-mazing cars. I miss my Saab 900 so much. It was a '94 900s V6 5spd. Rare to find the V6 with a manual, but it was awesome. Had it up to 140 a number of times, then put it into a tree sideways at 100mph, walked away with a stiff neck, otherwise not a scratch.

Never been a fan of how the convertible looks, and you loose the hatchback's awesome cargo room, but you still get a lot of car for not much $$$. $1700 is a great deal. I'm still regretting not getting one of these instead of my '08 Lancer. Only positive I can think of is I don't have to worry about reliability with the Mitsubishi. It's always a bit of a concern with Saabs.

What engine is in it? 2.3 or 2.0?

omg hahaha, and here I thought miata's looked gay

But on a serious note 1700 is a nice deal and I'm sure it is much more practical as a daily. 'Grats

What's so gay about it? I think it's pretty cool, plus for what I payed for it you can't beat it.

Definitely a neat car and great price, but cmon: it looks gayer than a bag of dicks.
Maybe the angle of the pic is contributing to it, I dunno. And those wheels, holy **** haha.


But seriously: I'm sure its a great Daily driver

Oh well, my wife, kid and dog love it an thats all it really matters. Now we get to take trips to the beach with the top down, and the best part about it it's that it has a little kick from the turbo

1997 900 SE Turbo here...not a bad car, but ours is getting a little tired. Hoping to trade it within the next year or so before we run into a big repair.

Cool deal man. But, yea a little drop and some nice wheels and it would change the look of that car 100%.

You did really well for 1700. I would have done it.

Haha, im not hating. Just thought it was funny and ironic to call your car gay.

I put some newer Saab wheels and painted them black, now I need to lower it a little.
