My name is Joe and I sell vehicles differently than most dealers. Buying your next vehicle through one of my NO RESERVE auctions is the best way to take the games out of your next automotive purchase. I personally road test each vehicle before it is offered for sale so I can give you my first hand opinion of how it runs and drives. Please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic. Each vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability. Please take the time to read this entire description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid. An administrative fee of $149 will be added to the final bid of each auction. Up for a NO RESERVE auction today is a 2003 Saab 9-3 Linear sedan finished in bright red over black leather with the optional 17" sport alloy wheels. I would rate the exterior of this Saab to be in AVERAGE CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle. As you can see, this is one good looking Saab! Folks will probably argue for years but I feel as if this generation 9-3 is the best looking vehicle Saab has ever produced. This car simply has an aggressive presence. It looks fast even when it's parked. The red finish shines well and looks good. As with any used vehicle, it is not perfect. There is a scrape at the bottom of the front bumper cover on the right side. There are also a few small dings, dents and other imperfections here and there as one should expect to find on a vehicle of this mileage. Overall, she looks pretty good. All of the glass and lenses appear to be intact. The optional 17" sport wheels look great on this car and are wrapped in good rubber with nice tread all around. The headlights could use buffed as they are starting to haze but the HID headlights still shine brightly to light up the road in front of you. I would rate the interior condition of this Saab to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle. Saab's are known for accumulating small marks on the interior plastics around the buttons and door handles. This one is no different. Other than that, the interior shows quite well. The door cards are clean and tight. The carpets show well. The dash and headliner are clean. The leather seats show well and are comfortable. The three spoke sport steering wheel has audio controls on it which is very convenient while driving. Both front seats are heated. The climate control is fully automatic and appears to be working properly. The stereo is also the original unit which sounds good and appears to be working properly. The trunk is spacious and clean. This Saab is equipped with OnStar should you choose to subscribe to their services. Mechanically, this Saab appears to be in need of routine maintainence but is in good driving condition. The 2.0L turbocharged engine is a relative of the GM Ecotec engine which are used widely. The engine starts easily and runs smoothly. I noticed a small leak of power steering fluid from one of the upper hoses and the valve cover gaskets seep a little...both of which are common to this engine and minor service items. The engine does not smoke. The bushings in the front end are beginning to show some age but it does not present any drivability issues at this time. The steering feels neutral and responsive. The brakes stop this sports sedan with no issues. Out on the road, this Saab behaves well. The sport tuned suspension with the optional 17" wheels and high performance tires help this Saab stick to the road through the corners. Out on the highway, she cruises nice and smoothly with no complaints. The turbo spools quickly as it should. Under hard throttle, you can feel a misfire...which is also common with this engine as it ages. It is due for a basic tune up service (plugs/wires/coils). If you keep your foot out of the throttle, she'll get along fine and cruise easily down the road. I sell every vehicle "as-traded" and am not set up for service work of any kind. I road test every vehicle and report it's current condition along with any recommendations I can pass along from my own experience. This Saab was a NEW CAR TRADE and will require service as we do not service or recondition any vehicle prior to being sold. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.

The seller shall not be responsible for the correct description, authenticity, genuineness, or defects herein, and makes no warranty in connection therewith. No allowance or set aside will be made on account of any incorrectness, imperfection, defect or damage. Any descriptions or representations are for identification purposes only and are not to be construed as a warranty of any type. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have thoroughly inspected the vehicle, and to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value and to bid based upon that judgement solely. The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle. Terms & Conditions If you wish to contact us for any reason, the quickest and best way to do so is through eBay's email system. Messages left on the office voicemail may take several days to get to the right person or get lost. We offer a unique way of purchasing a car but it does carry additional risk to the buyer when compared to buying a vehicle at retail price from a retail dealership that has been inspected and may carry a warranty. Please understand that each vehicle we sell is being sold exactly as we received it (unless otherwise noted in the written description). We always disclose any known faults with the vehicle in our description. However, the description we provide is based solely on our observations of the vehicle during our road test. These vehicles are sold AS-IS and do not carry any sort of warranty. Please consider this when you decide if buying from us is something you feel comfortable with. We try to eliminate as much risk as possible for our buyers but cannot offer reconditioned, warrantied vehicles for sale with No Reserve. We are happy to answer any questions from prospective buyers regarding our business or specific vehicles listed for sale and aim to make buying from us as trouble free as possible. Bidding: Please read the entire description and view all pictures before placing a bid. We go out of our way to provide as detailed of a description as possible in addition to posting several dozen photos of each unit. If you have any questions or concerns that have not been addressed within our listing, feel free to send us an email so that we may address your specific question before placing your bid. Please wait to place your bid until you are completely comfortable with what you're bidding on. By placing a bid on any of our auctions, you assert that you have read and agree to our entire terms & conditions as well as eBay's terms & conditions. Additionally, you enter into a binding contract to purchase the item they are bidding on should you be the winning bidder. By placing a bid on any of our auctions, each bidder asserts that they understand the risks of purchasing a used vehicle and have fully exercised their ability to complete any diligence or any any questions needed PRIOR to placing their bid. In the event of any bid retraction or bid change, it shall be the right of the seller to honor or not honor the outcome of the auction. This decision will be made at the sole discretion of the seller and can be made at any time while the auction is live or after the auction closes. Additionally, any member who changes or withdraws a bid may be permanently barred from bidding on future auctions. The seller may, at its sole discretion and for any reason deemed appropriate, cancel any bid or restrict any member from bidding on current and future auctions. Winning bidders: Winning bidders are required to contact us within 48 hours of auction close and make arrangements for payment and vehicle pick-up. If we do not hear from you within 48 hours, the vehicle may be sold to another buyer. All non-paying bidders will be reported to eBay. Payment: Payment is due within 7 days of the auction close. Cash in person upon pick up is the preferred method of payment. There are other payment options for long distance buyers where paying in person is not possible. Paypal is NOT accepted for payment, nor do we have the ability to accept credit cards. Vehicle Pick-up: Arrangements must be made in advance to pick up a vehicle. We do not have regular hours; we operate by-appointment. We are very flexible and accommodating with days and times to pick-up, but must have advance notice or there is a very real possibility you or your shipper may arrive and nobody will be at our facility. Vehicles paid with cash will be available immediately. If paid by any other method, the vehicle and title will be held until funds have been cleared by my bank. All vehicles must be collected within 14 days of auction's end. Vehicles left longer than 14 days without a specific exception being made will be subject to a storage fee of $10/day.Fee and Tax Information: The only fee added by the seller is our $149 fee. This is used to isolate our fixed expenses such as eBay fees, transportation, processing, ect., and is not applied to any costs incurred by the purchaser. The purchaser is responsible for any and all costs associated with transfer of ownership including, but not limited to: registration, sales tax, tags (including temp or in-transit tags), title transfer, inspection, and transportation expenses. We are unable to complete any tag or title work (including temp tags) in-house, nor do we collect any sales tax or registration fees. There are Tag & Title locations nearby that can handle those tranactions. We will assist you in that process.See our other listingsDisclaimer: This auction is a legally binding contract to buy this vehicle. All vehicles are sold as-is unless otherwise specified.

Hello and thank you for looking at my auction. My name is Joe and I sell vehicles differently than most dealers. Buying your next vehicle through one of my NO RESERVE auctions is the best way to take the games out of your next automotive purchase. I personally road test each vehicle before it is offered for sale so I can give you my first hand opinion of how it runs and drives. Please keep in mind that I am not a mechanic. Each vehicle is represented accurately and honestly to the best of my knowledge and ability. Please take the time to read this entire description as well as our Terms & Conditions carefully BEFORE asking questions or placing a bid. An administrative fee of $149 will be added to the final bid of each auction.
Up for a NO RESERVE auction today is a 2003 Saab 9-3 Linear sedan finished in bright red over black leather with the optional 17" sport alloy wheels. I would rate the exterior of this Saab to be in AVERAGE CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle. As you can see, this is one good looking Saab! Folks will probably argue for years but I feel as if this generation 9-3 is the best looking vehicle Saab has ever produced. This car simply has an aggressive presence. It looks fast even when it's parked. The red finish shines well and looks good. As with any used vehicle, it is not perfect. There is a scrape at the bottom of the front bumper cover on the right side. There are also a few small dings, dents and other imperfections here and there as one should expect to find on a vehicle of this mileage. Overall, she looks pretty good. All of the glass and lenses appear to be intact. The optional 17" sport wheels look great on this car and are wrapped in good rubber with nice tread all around. The headlights could use buffed as they are starting to haze but the HID headlights still shine brightly to light up the road in front of you.
I would rate the interior condition of this Saab to be in ABOVE AVERAGE CONDITION for the age and mileage of this vehicle. Saab's are known for accumulating small marks on the interior plastics around the buttons and door handles. This one is no different. Other than that, the interior shows quite well. The door cards are clean and tight. The carpets show well. The dash and headliner are clean. The leather seats show well and are comfortable. The three spoke sport steering wheel has audio controls on it which is very convenient while driving. Both front seats are heated. The climate control is fully automatic and appears to be working properly. The stereo is also the original unit which sounds good and appears to be working properly. The trunk is spacious and clean. This Saab is equipped with OnStar should you choose to subscribe to their services.
Mechanically, this Saab appears to be in need of routine maintainence but is in good driving condition. The 2.0L turbocharged engine is a relative of the GM Ecotec engine which are used widely. The engine starts easily and runs smoothly. I noticed a small leak of power steering fluid from one of the upper hoses and the valve cover gaskets seep a little...both of which are common to this engine and minor service items. The engine does not smoke. The bushings in the front end are beginning to show some age but it does not present any drivability issues at this time. The steering feels neutral and responsive. The brakes stop this sports sedan with no issues. Out on the road, this Saab behaves well. The sport tuned suspension with the optional 17" wheels and high performance tires help this Saab stick to the road through the corners. Out on the highway, she cruises nice and smoothly with no complaints. The turbo spools quickly as it should. Under hard throttle, you can feel a misfire...which is also common with this engine as it ages. It is due for a basic tune up service (plugs/wires/coils). If you keep your foot out of the throttle, she'll get along fine and cruise easily down the road. I sell every vehicle "as-traded" and am not set up for service work of any kind. I road test every vehicle and report it's current condition along with any recommendations I can pass along from my own experience. This Saab was a NEW CAR TRADE and will require service as we do not service or recondition any vehicle prior to being sold. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed, written, or implied. The seller shall not be responsible for the correct description, authenticity, genuineness, or defects herein, and makes no warranty in connection therewith. No allowance or set aside will be made on account of any incorrectness, imperfection, defect or damage. Any descriptions or representations are for identification purposes only and are not to be construed as a warranty of any type. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have thoroughly inspected the vehicle, and to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value and to bid based upon that judgement solely. The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle.
If you wish to contact us for any reason, the quickest and best way to do so is through eBay's email system. Messages left on the office voicemail may take several days to get to the right person or get lost.
We offer a unique way of purchasing a car but it does carry additional risk to the buyer when compared to buying a vehicle at retail price from a retail dealership that has been inspected and may carry a warranty. Please understand that each vehicle we sell is being sold exactly as we received it (unless otherwise noted in the written description). We always disclose any known faults with the vehicle in our description. However, the description we provide is based solely on our observations of the vehicle during our road test. These vehicles are sold AS-IS and do not carry any sort of warranty.
Please consider this when you decide if buying from us is something you feel comfortable with. We try to eliminate as much risk as possible for our buyers but cannot offer reconditioned, warrantied vehicles for sale with No Reserve. We are happy to answer any questions from prospective buyers regarding our business or specific vehicles listed for sale and aim to make buying from us as trouble free as possible.
Bidding:
Please read the entire description and view all pictures before placing a bid. We go out of our way to provide as detailed of a description as possible in addition to posting several dozen photos of each unit. If you have any questions or concerns that have not been addressed within our listing, feel free to send us an email so that we may address your specific question before placing your bid. Please wait to place your bid until you are completely comfortable with what you're bidding on.
By placing a bid on any of our auctions, you assert that you have read and agree to our entire terms & conditions as well as eBay's terms & conditions. Additionally, you enter into a binding contract to purchase the item they are bidding on should you be the winning bidder. By placing a bid on any of our auctions, each bidder asserts that they understand the risks of purchasing a used vehicle and have fully exercised their ability to complete any diligence or any any questions needed PRIOR to placing their bid.
In the event of any bid retraction or bid change, it shall be the right of the seller to honor or not honor the outcome of the auction. This decision will be made at the sole discretion of the seller and can be made at any time while the auction is live or after the auction closes. Additionally, any member who changes or withdraws a bid may be permanently barred from bidding on future auctions.
The seller may, at its sole discretion and for any reason deemed appropriate, cancel any bid or restrict any member from bidding on current and future auctions.
Winning bidders:
Winning bidders are required to contact us within 48 hours of auction close and make arrangements for payment and vehicle pick-up. If we do not hear from you within 48 hours, the vehicle may be sold to another buyer. All non-paying bidders will be reported to eBay.
Payment:
Payment is due within 7 days of the auction close.
Cash in person upon pick up is the preferred method of payment. There are other payment options for long distance buyers where paying in person is not possible. Paypal is NOT accepted for payment, nor do we have the ability to accept credit cards.
Vehicle Pick-up:
Arrangements must be made in advance to pick up a vehicle. We do not have regular hours; we operate by-appointment. We are very flexible and accommodating with days and times to pick-up, but must have advance notice or there is a very real possibility you or your shipper may arrive and nobody will be at our facility.
Vehicles paid with cash will be available immediately. If paid by any other method, the vehicle and title will be held until funds have been cleared by my bank.
All vehicles must be collected within 14 days of auction's end. Vehicles left longer than 14 days without a specific exception being made will be subject to a storage fee of $10/day.
Fee and Tax Information: The only fee added by the seller is our $149 fee. This is used to isolate our fixed expenses such as eBay fees, transportation, processing, ect., and is not applied to any costs incurred by the purchaser.
The purchaser is responsible for any and all costs associated with transfer of ownership including, but not limited to: registration, sales tax, tags (including temp or in-transit tags), title transfer, inspection, and transportation expenses.
We are unable to complete any tag or title work (including temp tags) in-house, nor do we collect any sales tax or registration fees. There are Tag & Title locations nearby that can handle those tranactions. We will assist you in that process.
This auction is a legally binding contract to buy this vehicle. All vehicles are sold as-is unless otherwise specified. I have done my best to accurately describe this vehicle. It is up to the buyer to come see and further inspect the car before the end of the auction.-->
