My buddy is selling his Saab. It's a rare 6-speed manual. Normally I wouldn't pimp a car out on here, but it's just that nice. Dealer maintained from day 1 at the local Saab dealership.

Would if I could.

Probably NP but I liked the 2007's more than the '08's.

Hotness. Best of luck to him.

NP, that's a slick looking 9-3 and I bet the 2.8T and 6MT combo is fun.

Gorgeous car, are these AWD or FWD?

This is an FWD model, but AWD was available in Model Year 2009.

I've driven a few 2.8L 9-3s with the stick... it's riotous good fun.

2007 was good because you got the old exterior, color-keyed door handles and the new interior. My mom had an Anniversary package '07 in Fusion Blue - kids always tried to race her at stoplights.

I've driven a Volvo but never a Saab. In 3 years, there's never been one traded in.

You have your used car manager to thank for that... probably lowballed the crap out of any that would have been traded in. They are bringing a whole lot of nothing at the auction.

I don't know that we've even had the opportunity. Driving a Saab is on my bucket list, though preferably somwthing older like a first generation 900.

Now you're speaking my language! I've had about 20 old 900s over the years and they were spectacular cars. Definitely a unique driving experience to say the least.

I hate all Saabs after GM took over, but they just did that 9-3 right! 2007 aero in bright red, with the lip wing, and manual, just to perfect.

I have a friend down in Florida selling an '06 9-3 Aero in Laser Red right now. 6-speed. Stunning car.

My dad needs a winter beater since he's selling our 9000 Aero. Just out of curiosity, do you have a link?

Carl (@stuffcarlsays) > A3R0

He's only got it posted on FB but here's the description and pic. If you're interested, I can make the intro.

Thanks! We're driving back from dinner, and he's driving, but he's looking at under 10k so we'll see. I'm to young to drive (to give you an idea of my age) so we still go out for family dinners.

A3R0 > Carl (@stuffcarlsays)
11/10/2013 at 19:17

He's looking for a little less mileage, but thanks!

No prob.

The seller has asked me to reiterate the fact that the car has the lowest number of warranty claims as any Saab he's seen come through his dealership, and that it's had all the services done by a Saab Master Technician since day one.
