Yes. Saab Parts AB makes OEM stuff. Tons of other companies make aftermarket stuff. Parts are plentiful, and comparatively (?) cheap.

This is a rare bird and sort of a transitional 900 Turbo. 8 valve turbo engine, non-intercooled, CIS injected etc, non-compatible gearbox with later models. Less capable than an ‘86 and later 16vT, but considerably more unique. Cool little car. Hope it comes with a rebuilt gearbox. Nice price all day.

I had a 99 9-3 SE HOT with a 5 speed, and do I wish I had a time machine to roll it (and me?) back to when it was new. What a fun and all around great car.

Feast your eyes on this beauty. She’s all mine, so look but don’t touch.

AW hell yea on that 900 Turbo, Patrick. And not to pee on your campfire, but they’re not very complex at all, and tend to stay fixed once fixed. Just prepare for a gearbox rebuild!

Long road trip through the Adirondacks in my 99 9-3 SE and found myself going 120 in 5th effortlessly. I don’t remember the exact RPMs but I was just getting back into the >3000 rpm boost sweet spot and it just wanted to blast off. That was the least quick but most fast car I’ve ever had. Long legs, indeed.

When we eventually complete our inevitable evolution into basically brains in vats, do you think we’ll still care about sports?

Also, one time I got a hole in the exhaust and I drove into a parking garage, and it was so loud, it set off a bunch of car alarms. That was cool.

I had an‘87 QSW with the NA 10v engine. It was slow, it had been hit once, the sunroof leaked, the clutch master cylinder was always screwed up, the quattro vacuum lines were cracked somewhere, the exhaust system was mainly tin cans and pigeon shit welds, wasps made a nest in it and stung me, the ignition module died Read more

Perhaps but don’t you think it is, at the very least, unseemly in the way that laughing at “Steve” is not?

All those Harambe memes and jokes are just exercises in racism, right? Like how else can a load of white guys snicker at an African name without it being explicitly racist?
