Rust on the A-pillar?

Penetrating Rust...

 

1997 Saab 900SE (Posted 11/5/2007)

Color: Cayenne Red Trans: Automatic Mileage: 52,250 Price: $8995
This is an immaculate one family owned, low mileage last generation Saab 900. Ordered new in Cayenne Red with Black Leather Interior. The body is dent and scratch free. Oil changed every 4,000 miles. 30k and 60k services done. This is the nicest NG Saab 900 in the country. Car has Leather, 17" Viking Wheels, Very rare Front and Rear Heated Seats. Automatic, with sport and winter mode. I hate to have to sell her but she neer gets driven anymore now that I have a company car. Pictures, Carfax, and Serivce records available. If you buy this car you will not be sorry!!

Umm... ya..

 

haha, yeeeeah. Has anyone noticed that the high priced cars on saabnet that actually sell are pristine STOCK cars? Cars like moded 900-turbos don't seem to sell at all, they are one of those cars that you can add up the value of the mods, deduct that from the cars KBB value, and you have the price of the car you can actually sell it at. that 92 isn't worth $800 IMO, especially with a rust hole in the screen (indicated a botched windscreen replacement). Moding a C-900 is not something that is a profit making venture :lol:

I think I might just list the 91 900-T on saabnet for my own entertainment value for $5000. If it sells for that I'll do 3 backflips, and probably have a heart attack. I'll be able to buy one of those fancy "bulletproof" transmissions from Sweden, install that into one of the other 2 $100 cars I recently got and drive those forever.

Rust on the A-pillar?

My 900 has a lil bit of rust on the A pillar. Theres actually a hole rusted through on the cowl. It can happen.

 

Unless it's like a Hirsch modified car, the more you self-modify, the more it gets devalued.

And that applies to virtually any car, really, not just Saab.

So, ya, a pristine, unmolested, low mileage car will hold its value far better.

Relatively speaking. We ARE talking Saabs, after all...

 

the more you self-modify, the more it gets devalued.

yep, but this is true with so many cars... Saabs are no exception. Best bet is to make your mods reversible and sell your car stock, and sell the after market equipment separate. This will get the most profit from the sale.

 

this one is rare i know, but talk about a high price....

'91 MCY SE(i think?) @ 64K for 12500!

 

This was a little bit more reasonably priced, but just a little.

Yeah those monte carlo/SiS/beryl greenSPG/etc go for silly money

They got jipped though it doesn't even have an APC box!

 

I hate how Saabnet takes down the location info after something sells. Anyone know where that ComEd vert that just sold was located?

 

Nevermind, I think it was #437.

 

I always feel that a car is worth exactly what someone is willing to pay for it.
