Means of contact: PM or post here

Price: $2900

Description: For sale is a 1998 Saab 900 SE Imola Red over black leather, 5 spd manual, 2.0 Turbo. Low miles at 94,000. Viking wheels all in good shape. Very solid car with no mechanical issues.

Needs some paint work (peeling clear coat on rear driver's quarter and driver's door, faded paint on some panels, needs a good wax/polish). Needs front and rear badges (faded/paint missing) which I'll replace before sale. Small scuff on rear bumper.

Other than that, runs perfectly with 100% power. Leather is in good shape, no headliner sag. 5 spd manual shifts like butter. Very few interior rattles/squeaks. Oil change and inspection 10 days ago. CD changer in trunk. Driven mostly by a middle-aged woman.

This is a family friends' car that I offered to put up for sale. PM or post here if interested. Priced to sell at $2900, willing to negotiate. Great for a starter car or winter daily. I would keep it myself for a winter car but I don't have any space to store (too many other Saabs).

Car is located in Chicago, IL.

Its a shame the paint is trashed like that on such a low mileage car (not dissing the owner) but overall someone is going to be very happy with it. Also is that the oem steering wheel? Looks like its from a 9k.

Agreed. Wasn't too happy to see the paint either but it's not a hard fix.

Steering wheel is original as far as I know. I've seen other '98 SEs with the same wheel.

Aren't many left like this!

The steering wheel is stock and is a 9-3 unit (or what would become). The 98's were a hybrid year, with a 9-3 style steering column, no chrome strips in the bumpers and best of all... a hydraulic clutch.

That's a great car for someone. It should sell quickly.

Easy way to fix clear coat peel is to remove the flaked pieces with a new razor blade, then tape and mask the effected area and respray a clear coat out of a can. If done with care it can look factory again.
