Used Car of the Day: 2001 Saab 9-3

by Tim Healey

Published: June 27th, 2024

Today we have a drop-top Swede for you -- a 2001 Saab 9-3.

There are only 76K miles on the clock on this one, and the seller says the interior is clean. He or she also seems to imply that the exterior has been cleaned up since the photos were taken, but obviously I cannot confirm that.

Apparently the car runs well and has been well-maintained, but the convertible top isn't coming down right now.

The price is $3,100 and this Saab is for sale in Connecticut.

Tim Healey

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

My sister had a 2010 9-3 sedan through 2019. While it wasn't as easy to get parts as an Impala it wasn't a major task either. It's also crazy to remember how cheap used cars were pre-Covid. 😅

$2500 and it's yours. Everyone parks on dirt in Vermont.

Akear Mary Barra has little or no feel for the market. This is yet another reason why GM will perform better when she retires. Barra's track record at GM is about as good as Biden debate performance last week.

Jeff China now has the manufacturing capacity to produce 1/3 of the World's vehicles but under the current geopolitical environment this will not happen. As someone above stated all bets are off if China invades Taiwan. What many don't understand is that China plans for the long term and can wait it out till the geopolitical environment becomes less hostile toward China. I am not endorsing Chinese trade just stating that China is preparing for the future.
3-On-The-Tree Im glad it was fixed in time that would’ve been a huge pain and inconvenience to you if it had broke. My 2009 C6 Corvette LS3 has been great with no recalls. My 1985 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ60 actually had a recall for the gas tank and seat belt warning stickers about 10 years go and Toyota fixed it, got a new tank, fuel lines and stickers.
Rochester Statistics and numbers don't have an agenda, which is why I like most lists. But these days statistics are used to validate why raw market trends are "correct"; (crossovers, EV's pro and con, the manual transmission, etc.). But by smugly declaring an opinion or trend as proven true by the market, it overlooks any intrinsic value the point of discussion may have. And when that gets lost, we all lose.
