Vehicle Detail

2008 Turbox 87300 miles.(may increase) Only 600 came to the US. Owned by a 55+ non smoking manager. Driven 150 miles per day on the Garden State Parkway. 99% of miles were solo. I baby my vehicles..Never raced or beat on.K&N air filter. Synthetic oil changes every 6k. Transmission fluid change at 60k. Fresh Iridium plugs & oil change. Cross drilled & slotted rotors. Car came with Vermont Tuners Stage 2. 323 WHP Plenty of power if ever needed. EVERYTHING works perfectly except the washer fluid. It pumps but there is a leak in the line . Car is used, so little chips & scratches should be expected. The only camera I have is a phone & you can see I am not that good with it. . I will send any photos that are requested. Will entertain all offers. The 2008 Saab Turbo X, the first 9-3 model equipped with all-wheel drive, eclipses the Aero as Saab’s top-of-the-line 9-3. A limited run of 600 will be sold in the U.S. as a four-door sedan and five-door wagon. And in homage to Saab turbos of yesteryear, the Turbo X comes in just one color: Jet Black Metallic.At the heart of the X is a more powerful version of the Aero’s turbocharged 2.8-liter V-6. It makes 280 horsepower in the X, 25 more than in the Aero, by increasing its turbo boost from 8.7 psi to 11.6 psi. The suspension is stiffened—almost rigid when compared with the base car—and the body is lowered nearly a half-inch. Brake-rotor diameters grow to 13.6 inches in front and 11.5 inches in the rear, an increase of 1.8 and 0.1, respectively, over the Aero. The interior has some carbon-fiber-looking trim and a retro boost gauge. We especially liked the thicker, leather-wrapped steering wheel. A six-speed manual transmission is standard; the optional six-speed automatic costs $1350.The all-wheel-drive system, called XWD, primarily drives the front wheels; when necessary, a wet-clutch pack engages the rear axle. The Turbo X is also fitted with an electronic limited-slip rear differential (eLSD) that actively manages the torque split side to side. XWD is currently optional only on 9-3 Aeros; it will be optional on all 9-3s for 2009. Buyers wanting all-wheel drive in the step-up 9-5 model must wait until fall.Although the Saab’s front-drive architecture is usually a recipe for understeer, the XWD and the eLSD do an effective job of masking this trait. Playful oversteer is easily invoked with simple throttle modulation.On Jul-01-16 at 12:32:18 PDT, seller added the following information: I thought Ebay supplied a vehicle history report. Posted is the carfax from when I purchased the car on 6-14. There has been nothing negative under my ownership.
