Yes, Secor Saab in New London, CT still has !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! available on its lot, and you can confirm their newness with the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . So, let's recap here: imported November 2010, driven only 13 miles as of four years after that, and completely untitled. How on earth do they plan on selling them?

I love how those photos are obviously photoshopped lol (referring to the lead pics in front of the dealer name)

I feel like there could be significant rotting going on with any rubber components on those cars.

this is really weird. They must have a real stubborn sales manager and zero loans on these cars

What is amazing to me is, I lived up there for several years, back in 2005-2008, and had no idea there was even a Saab dealer in New London.

That would be a seriously dumb new car purchase.

For the right price and the right warranty service, I would consider one. Strong emphasis on "right price" and "right warranty."

And every bit of rubber would need to be replaced with new rubber, including (read: especially) the tires, with their four years of dry rot.

Another 5-10 years and they'll hit the bottom of the depreciation curve, then another 10 or so after that $$Profit! I think that's what the dealer is hoping for.

Shameful confession: Chasing a 9-5 with the 300HP V6 - Prices are quasi-reasonable out there but mostly for the 2.0 Auto. (14,000-18,000 used) The V6's are hard to come by. And the car needs Navi, the XM radio thing there is the UGLIEST thing in the dashboard. Rejected from Geely almost.

I did drive once the 2.0 with the 6-sp manual, and it just wasn't that great on low gears - I really did try to love it.
