Super fun car! NO RESERVE! No SOB story here....ultra reliable. Well maintained. I've driven it for about 100miles or so to ensure it's reliability. If you didn't know, this 2.0 Turbo setup is the same used in the Cobalt SS cars later in the decade. Proven design. Exterior looks great! Easy 7.5+ out of 10 with only a few blemishes contributing to the deduction. Left front bumper corner had a few scratches that have been touched up by yours truly. The lower front of the cover has seen better days, expected with a lower stance. The headlights look nice with minimal fading. Hood has only a handful of rockchips yet are hard to see with the car being silver. I'm no bodyman, but I don't see any signs of any major repairs or repaints save for the driver's door. It's shiny, but the color is a tiny bit "off" (as you will notice now that I mentioned it). Body is decently straight. No visible rust to be found. Minimal typical dings which could be dentbusted if desired. Rather hard to find and see actually. ZERO dents on the car. Below you can see the nearly new tires look to have about 2000 miles on em. Probably less to be honest. They ride on clean minimally damaged vibration free rims. Being the ARC model, I prefer this rim design, great looks with a nice comfortable ride. Unseen are the recently replaced front brakes. Rears have about 50% life left on the brakes. All stop effortlessly on pulse/grind free rotors. Hood, roof and trunk look great. Rear bumper cover has also seen better days, with a few cuts and scratches, but I touched those up with matching paint so it looks justlikenew2u!! All exterior lighting works properly with no issues. Rear backup sensor warning system works as it should. Below is pretty much the biggest eyesore on the entire car...IF...you notice it. Small crack visible here but it carries along the upper edge under the front passenger door line. Easily glued if desired. I honestly didn't have glue on hand before taking the pics. Interior looks great. Easy 8 out of 10. Typical Saab flat black coating wear on the door handles and a couple of the buttons. Steering wheel looks amazing. Leather is barely worn with zero noticable damages to speak of. I HATE smoke and can't see or smell any signs of a former smoker. Driver's bolster has little to no wear. Shifter is nice. Carpet looks super clean and stain free. NO dummy lights are on during run and ALL illuminate during startup as they should. ALL the power items seem to work: power windows, locks, mirrors, sunroof, dual climate control with HOT heat and ICE COLD AC, AM/FM/CD player (didn't insert a CD tho), information panel (pixels on info and climate panels are readable), cruise, steering wheel controls, heated power front seating, HomeLink, backup warning system, auto dimming rearview mirror, etc!! Rear seat area looks barely sat in. Trunk houses the intact spare setup, aired up for your roadtrip home. Factory floormats are clean and complete. Below...even the CUPHOLDER functions properly and ISN'T MISSING! Sorry, no factory manuals are included. The car has ONE working keyless key/keyfob. Pick a spot under the hood and eat off it! Recent big battery fires the engine right up. It runs great with no noises or issues. Oil is spotless. No signs of any major oil or coolant leaks. No spots on my shop floor overnight. Turbo pulls quietly and strongly. Impressive actually. I wasn't experiencing any transmission issues but I did notice a random tight downshift (2nd to 1st) every once in awhile coming to a stop. It seems the fluid was ready for a change, so I serviced it with a couple rounds of fresh (proper) trans fluid. So far, so good. No worries. ALL fluids are serviced and clean. Brakes work flawlessly. Suspension is tight and noise free save for a teeny tiny squeak from the left front strut bearking plate (typical especially during humid days). I mention it because I'm a nitpicker. Barely noticable to most. Otherwise the car drives straight and smooth with no unusual pulling or wandering over any pavement. The car is ready to go! Inspect my excellent feedbacks.
