See, you have to be careful about people claiming that they hit a certain number of miles. Many American car ownes make these outlandish claims but what they dont always tell you is that they have rebuilds. Honda and Toyota owners are talking about non rebuilds.
What a bunch of BS. Is this to to show that Saab owners are stingy? Real loyalty to Saab would have had him buying 10 -20 NEW Saabs during that time period thus helping the company. So what does the company do to reward him for buying ONE car? They give him a new one free. Makes no sense to me. They should do the opposite and reward their customers who buy a lot on new Saabs, like 25 or 30.
I regularly drive my 1992 900 Ti16AERO Conv between London UK and Turin in Italy. 800miles x 2 at least 3 - 4 times a year. Turn engine on, drive, get to wheer i need. Park, go for coffee. If the weather is good, then even with the roof down. SOrted.
"Sabb" ahahaha,that's why no one knows about this brand and it's going to be bankrupt.No offence,I don't have anything with the Saab owners,I know it's a good car but the germans and japs have a very good marketing.
Older saabs were great think they started to wrong around mid 90s when the quality slipped a bit . Saying that though there are still a great many 20 year old examples on the roads and they look and sound pretty fresh, so they cant be all that bad. I think the New 95 is a stunning car and looks every inch the Individual style of the 70 and 80s classics. People bad mouth them because people associate GM with poor people and they cant get passed that when they bitch about saabs, its just snobbery.
@blackt0wer They might have been owned by GM, but they were still made with quality and care in Sweden and Finland. My '95 SE (V6 Convertible) is running very strong still.
@C63AMGestate then watch some w123 videos.. 1 million miles here 4 million kms there. this is probably the only SAAB in the world close to that mileage and has been in very careful hands. lots of Mercedes on the other hand make it over 1mill kms regularly as old taxis or whatever, not all cared for very well still runs like new, i know cus ive got one, ran great after sitting 3 years on a field. just saying..
@HesseJamez I understand them! compared to old mercs the new ones are low quality, but compared with other brands the newer mercs are still in a different league! we had a -00 mercedes w210 270cdi with 370 000kms and ran like new you couldnt feel the gearchanges. but if you speak with real taxi drivers who´s been driving w123s and such mercs they never have done less than 500 000 - 1 000 000kms and that with ease! they are then sold private and go many hundreds of thousands of kms more..
It's amazing to think about. Most people don't drive 1,000,000 miles in a lifetime.. or travel, for that matter. The life of a car is something spectacular, and most of them outlast us!
Saab c900 the classic design best car ever!! Notorious for fender rust but his looks clean!! And I think it's an SPG!! I have a 1991 900 and I love it, new transmission has been the only major thing done to it!! It has 265,000 miles on it now, but I bet I can keep it going to about 500,000, hopefully.
SAAB was, and still is the best car on the road today! What matters is the History, and that people still love the brand! But I do agree that GM screwed up bad! haha! But the new 2010 SAAB 9-5 is just AMAZING!!! And the newer 9-3 is also nice!
Notice how the news team misspelt Saab as '1-Million Mile Sabb'... When you manage to stuff up the spelling of a four letter word, thats when you know its time to head back to first grade.
I'm always perplexed by Saab fans who get angry at GM. I drive an old 900 turbo, love it. I also have a Cadillac with 190k. The Saab probably has better longevity (we'll see, its a 91 with only 105k), but I doubt the company would have remained afloat on its own. GM didn't do anything to help Saab, but it likely would have perished on its own.
Nothing was more fun than working on them. My fourth, and current saab is a 9-5-defenitely not built they way the
900s were. GM ruined SAAB. Hopefully Spyker will build the next generation of SAABs the way they were meant to be. If so, I'll be the first to buy one.
@openwidesky your comment is marked as spam? obviously, people have no idea about saabs. saabs are great QUALITY cars. Right next to bmw. That's something you can't find in an American car. They are all cheap and brake down so much easier then saabs or volvos.
@Kratos2591 Wrong, a Chevy van went 1,000,000 miles too, Saabs suck sorry, some cars just luck driven, like this Saab or crappy Chevy vans. Saab is a crock of shit FWD, underpowered, for what they charge, and worst of all, now, they are just a turbo chevy anyway
@Z0hann SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU STUPID FUCKING GM/AMERICAN CAR HATING STUPID FUCKING SON OF A BITCH DUMBASS DOUCHEBAG... YEAH ....I AM SURE YOU LOOK COOL IN YOUR STUPID PIECE OF SHIT JAP CRAP BUT YOU DON'T.... YOU LOOK LIKE A STUPID FUCKING MORON JERKOFF SUPERFICIAL SCUZBAG!!!
I had an 88 saab turbo with 205,000 miles on it then the trans went out on it. Weird looking little cars but the turbo was unbelievably fast for a 4 cylinder.
@GEARHEADGUY92 Gotta beleve it mate...Saab had perfected it's 16 valve 4 cylinder engine so well that they last forever. They had 175 horsepower when new.
Yeah i've had about 11 saab 900's now and thought i'd try my hand at a GM 900, I'd sold it within 2 months, dreadful car.. ford and vauxhall combo how low can you go....
He may have the original BASIC engine but you can bet it had at least ONE valve job and ring/bearing job too. A million miles is IMPOSSIBLE otherwise.
well your kinda right,im a saab mechanic and have seen this engines firsthand...they need to adjust valves at around 120.000 miles,or 200.000km ,and thats about it!the pistons and sylinder is indestructable in normal use!even after a million! ;) The swedish enginges use a bit of fuel,but live forever!THATS NO BULL!
I have same car, same model, color, just year is 1987, but km mark I have is just around 350 thousand, so I can't believe that anybody could drive million and it's a miles.
The thing with these high mileage cars is that you never really know what the owner allready replaced. He may insist that the engine has never been overhauled but how can prove that??
Well...it's pretty easy to tell if it has been replaced or not. Check the numbers w/ the records for the engine. Now, there were probably many little things replaced over time as with any other engine.
we have a 92 saab 900 and we live in maine and its starting to rust in a few spots.
the snow kinda does a little bit of damage, but we love the car, and we wouldn't get anything other than a saab! we just got another red 94 saab convertible and we love it!
awesome dude. congratz. dats hotness imagine telling your kids.... yo i hit 1,000,000 miles on my car bitches... ive been around da block a few times lol

I have same car, same model, color, just year is 1987, but km mark I have is just around 350 thousand, so I can't believe that anybody could drive million and it's a miles.

The thing with these high mileage cars is that you never really know what the owner allready replaced. He may insist that the engine has never been overhauled but how can prove that??

Well...it's pretty easy to tell if it has been replaced or not. Check the numbers w/ the records for the engine. Now, there were probably many little things replaced over time as with any other engine.

it depends on where you live....
we have a 92 saab 900 and we live in maine and its starting to rust in a few spots.
the snow kinda does a little bit of damage, but we love the car, and we wouldn't get anything other than a saab! we just got another red 94 saab convertible and we love it!
