Should I buy this 99?
well I have been hashing it over for a little while now, this guy is ready to sell. I would prefer to lowball him, but I think the best I could do is around $1000, though I might could be able to show up with $800 cash and swing that... opinions? pictures here-

im pretty sure the cost of getting a 99 all the way back here would make it about the same price, but much more time consuming.
i say buy the thing, then ill trade ya my 73 ems for it and i can drop a 16vt into that car instead ![]() Paul

well I did just spend about 12 hours fixing that blasted sunbird (all the brakes {+calipers and drums}), the exhaust and a bunch of other nagging issues, so I am clear for having the "winter beater" but FYI, we are not having a winter this year, I saw old man winter making his rounds early in December and I put a bullet in his chest. Now it's 70 degrees in Philadelphia, the tulips are blooming and the grass is green. No more Snow tires for me, I am rolling on all seasons all year long!

At this point, every 99 for sale needs to be scooped up by Saabers. If you can't restore it, the community atleast needs the parts. It's much better for the decision to junk a car be made by a Saab enthusiast, even better if its a public decision guided by the forum membership. I say buy the car, 99's are amazing cars and they are drying up quick.
