PLEASE CONTACT ME AND WE CAN WORK SOMETHING OUT. I NEED THIS GONE FOR A GOOD PRICE BEFORE IT STARTS SNOWING. THIS IS DUE TO LIVING UPSTATE NY AND HAVING TO TRAVEL DOWNSTATE TO SELL IT. For any questions, Please refer to the bottom of the Description on ways to contact me regarding this listing IN RED FONT. Pictures for this car will be posted no later than Saturday, October 31, 2009, possibly Earlier. This is due to us moving upstate and the Vehicle staying at a relatives house. So the strict reason for the picture already posted is for a general idea of a body style.

 Up for sale is a 1999 Saab 9-5. This vehicle has 125,XXX and currently should be Repaired before it can be driven far distance due to the exhaust, ADD THAT THE VEHICLE WILL RUN GREAT ONCE THE SINGLE PROBLEM IS FIXED. Nothing Major but take a look below for the details. LISTED WITH THE GOODS AND BADS. IT IS CURRENTLY LOCATED ON RT 145 IN CATSKILL, NY. (ABOUT 10 MINUTES OF OS EXIT 21 ON THE NYS THRUWAY.

This is a lighter Green 4 Door SE Sedan.

This car is Kelly Blue Booked at $3900 if in Excellent condition and sold by private party. Since this vehicle has mechanical issues, our reserve is set at $2000 OBO. So please email or call with serious inquiries only or reasonable offers, any are appreciated.

The Vehicle has been off the Road since Mid-July of 2009. Since then no work has been done because we bought a new car. And we are selling this one to help pay off the new one. We have been told that it would cost us approx. $1000 dollars to have a shop do the work, but if you know what you are doing than this is a much more cheaper  buy and fix for you. THE WORK STRICTLY EN TALES THE EXHAUST BEING REPLACED.

the only thing that IS wrong with the car was that the exhaust part near the Catalytic Converter had a Poor Welding job done and created a very loud engine noise when driving which caused the overheating. We are not mechanics and have not gotten a mechanic to look it over so this CAR WILL BE SOLD "AS IS" WITH NO IMPLIED WARRANTY OR REFUNDS and we ask that you please call to come see the vehicle in person before hand if interested.


What needs to be fixed for this vehicle to be in tip top SHAPE.
-The main project for this car is that it will need a NEW exhaust, from the Catalytic converter to the muffler tip. Some of the Exhaust CAN be saved but mainly, the part near the catalytic converter must be fixed before its driven.
-The gas gauge doesn't work, it will need a new mechanism in the Gas tank. This is strictly for knowing how much gas is in your car and does not affect anything mechanical in the vehicle unless you run out of gas of course.
-The front passenger and driver side windows need regulators.
-The vehicle will also need Basic routine Maintenance that including an oil change and any other routine fluid changes.
-The Fog lights (located in the Front bumper) will need replacing.

The positives about this vehicle:
-Is in perfect cosmetic condition besides the above stated flaws. The LEATHER seats are in great condition considering it being a ten year old car now.
-The Air conditioner is ICE COLD.
-Heated Seats are in working condition.
-There are no major Dings or scratches located on the vehicle.
-Tires are above 50% tread and Breaks are fairly new with being changed in March of 2009.
-All Information displays in the Vehicle and on the Dash are all in working order as well.
-All lights, Rear, Reverse, Headlights, and High Beams are all in working condition.
