FOR SALE 2008 9-7x Aero

[Mooseman]

Wish I had the money even though that is dirt cheap with that mileage.
Translations:
$8950CAD = $6663USD
123k Km= 76.5k Miles

How much could I get for a kidney?

That's a good looking saab aero for that price tag. What would cost to bring it and have it registered here in the states?

 

[Mooseman]

Hold on. I might be buying it after all. See my other post.

 

[freddyboy61]

That's a pretty good price for a 2008, especially from a dealer. What is an Aero model anyway?

 

[Mooseman]

A Saab version of an SS.

 

[Bow_Tied]

Not sure why, but all the very good prices I have seen on TBSSs have been in Quebec. Shop cautiously. Hope it works out for you.

[Mooseman]

Although that may be true, it's near impossible to find body parts for these trucks so a rebuild would be costly. Used parts are possible but they know the rarity and adjust their prices accordingly.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Buy it!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mooseman]

NEED MONEY! I should start a GoFundMe

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Shit...they start them for less...Fucking scammer lazy pieces of chit

 

[TollKeeper]

I want that aero .

Hey I just noticed it was posted in July 2015 that's a while ago seems weird to have not sold yet.

 

[littleblazer]

Still sounds a little fishy to me.

What are you talking about?

 

[Mike w]

It showed a different date on my tablet idk it's showing that date now lol

 

[Mooseman]

What you saw is the date that the user joined, on the right, just above his phone number.

 

[HARDTRAILZ]

Did you buy it?

 

[littleblazer]

If he waits too much longer I'm getting pretty close to doing it for him.

 

[Mooseman]

Still trying to find the money. Apparently selling human organs is frowned upon.

 

[Mooseman]

Damned, that truck is still calling my name. Still for sale. I did talk to the dealer when I almost pulled the trigger and she said that apparently it just needs an exhaust manifold. I was in the car and almost on the highway with a friend to go buy it

http://www.kijiji.ca/v-view-details.html?requestSource=b&adId=1234262923&siteLocale=en_CA

There were some financial issues that prevented me from doing it. For one, I would have to pay sales tax to Quebec ($1347) and then again to Ontario ($1170). I can get a refund of the Quebec tax after paying the Ontario tax but I'd be waiting months to get it back. And I'm also looking at buying an '07 TB from my work that will be going to auction. It's a low km LS that was garaged all its life and is in mint condition.

I think I'll go for the TB first for practicality and if I fail to get it, get the Aero if it's still available.

They can't ship it to a local dealer? They do that all the time in Colorado for anyone who's very interested.

 

[Mooseman]

It's a used car dealer, not a dealership.

 

[Mirage]

Saw this truck earlier this week on Kijiji. It's the only Saab I'd ever buy.
Paying 2x tax then waiting for refund is a bummer.
My TB is paid off in Feb
Maybe new summer toy in the works soon if you don't scoop it up Mooseman.

 

[TollKeeper]

I'm not sure this could be imported to the States, could it? I so want this truck.

I can no longer find it on Kijiji either

Hell, I can't find one anywhere for sale

 

[Mooseman]

I know importing from the US to Canada has become a PITA. It's actually the exporting from the US that's become difficult unless you run across the border without the paperwork from US Customs. Canada will allow it in as they don't care about US Customs, just as long as I pay the tax on import. Only thing though is that it could get seized if I drive it in the US. I did that with a snowmobile I bought in NY. Didn't want to wait the 3 days so I just took it across.

@TollKeeper , you're in CO, right? That is across the entire continent. Would cost $$$ to transport.

 

[Mirage]

Hell, I can't find one anywhere

I found it on autoTRADER.ca.

[TollKeeper]

Wonder how much it would be to ship to the States, and if there is an import tax.

Is the speedometer going to switch to mpg when I select it in the info center?

 

[Mooseman]

Speedo is analog so it has both with Kmh predominant with MPH smaller on the inside. You should have the same reversed on your speedo. The odo will switch to miles as well as F for the interior temp display. The other gauges are stuck on metric. Even the gas gauge doesn't say E ½ F but uses circle symbols.

There's maybe another reason why it's cheap is that it may have been driven in winter so it could be rusty underside. Another possibility is that it could have been in a crash. Quebec is famous (or infamous) for rebuilding wrecks as their system doesn't do rebranding. Once it passes safety, it's just licensed. No tracking of branding.

There's gotta be a reason why it hasn't sold yet.

 

[TollKeeper]

I'm just trying to find an Aero. Don't want a Trailblazer.

 

[Mooseman]

Have you tried this?
https://www.google.com/search?newwi...j1.6.0....0...1c.1.64.serp..0.0.0.tAUDe_OQXZQ

 

[TollKeeper]

Yep, I tried that. There's a couple there, 140k miles for 14g? I think not

 

[Bow_Tied]

I found it on autoTRADER.ca.

http://m.autotrader.ca/a/5_29703107?prx=-1&orup=9_10_9&srt=3&showVs=1

Where I live that'd be priced at $16k

I'm just trying to find an Aero. Don't want a Trailblazer.

I happened to run across an 9-7x on my way to work today (a couple miles from my home, parked on the owner's property). It was still there on the way home, so I stopped by to take a look.

It's an '05 with 120K miles - and they want $2900 for it.
Silver w/ black leather (which looks to still be in good condition, from what I can see.) Hood has one rust spot about the size of a silver dollar, near the front lip on the passenger side (common, from what I recall reading here). There's a small dent in one rear quarter (near the window), and the bumper cover on that same side has some scrapes. All in all, not a bad looking vehicle for the price, I thought, and the mileage isn't terrible.

Only 'problem', from reading your prior posts, is that you're looking for a SWB V8 - and this one has the 4.2, sadly. At least it's a US market vehicle.

If you or anyone else is interested, let me know - I can check it out in more detail. I also took a pic w/ my phone and can post it here if desired (just one for now)

 

[Mooseman]

That hood is thrash. Trust me, it's done for. And no replacements except possibly from Sweden at $600+ (No, I'm not kidding).

 

[Sparky]

Still seems weird that of all the sheet metal that was made for this platform right here in the states, they decided to make the Saab's hood over in Sweden. Like, why?

 

[Mooseman]

Apparently, when GM closed off Saab, some company bought them out and took it all back to Sweden or it's the stampings for the sheetmetal they have in Sweden. I dunno. That's what the local distributor for Saab parts told me.

Anyway, Saab is in deep trouble with bankrupt owners again. This article gives a good history:

[northcreek]

That was good information on the demise of Saab, funny now that I see their logo I can't help but, think that they were sticking their tongue out at GM, and rightfully so.

 

[Mooseman]

They tried to resist GM's usual rebadging bullshit and eventually succumbed. They paid with their souls and the Saab name and now they're gone. They are now cursed since anyone that buys them goes bankrupt.

 

[northcreek]

CRAP!...I just bought the Saab Co. before you wrote that.....
