1984 SAAB 900 S, no more Grand Am from HELL!

So...my 2002 Pontiac Grand Am from HELL has been rather popular on youtube these days...I'd like to mention that 100000 and the later "this car might be totaled" video are very old. As in...the car was DEFINITELY TOTALED. I've said this a million times in the comments for the other video.

THIS IS THE REPLACEMENT. More like a DREAM COME TRUE! So don't tell me "o that sux u had 2 get an old car" because this is what I fought for. And it's an automatic...do you have any idea how hard it is to find a classic Saab 900 that's not manual?!?!?!?!

Cost me $550. Had to drive to Boston to get it on February 27, 2008. When I bought it, it had 141,442 miles on it. As of today, it has 156,712 miles. The past year has been quite awesome. Only had to replace one tire, the brakes, and get a tune up. Meanwhile that god-awful grand am from hell cost me $185.22 per month, and in May 2007 cost over $3000 in repairs for a blown intake valve cover gasket, head gasket, broken door window regulator and some other garbage I don't remember anymore.

My SAAB. It's named Sophie Saab. It's as old as I am. Much love. (February 12, 2009)

Why is it always a Jeep?

I'm going to retire my '88 four-door, white 900 next weekend. Ten years and around 120,000 miles ago a Jeep hit the right rear corner, driven by drunken Indians, but there wasn't much damage. .

Need any parts?

[MusashiHazmat84]

No, don't need parts...could use a whole car! It's been about a year since this video and the car is not doing very well, I just had a new exhaust put in but it's hard to start and when it's idling or at low speeds one of the cylinders in the engine doesn't fire and the mechanic says he's not sure what would fix it without getting into a lot of money. I don't really want to give up on the car but I can't afford to fix it anymore :(. What's wrong with yours?

Hey I used to have a White Saab 900s like yours when I was loving on Canada. I used to love that car to bits and it will always be special to me cos it was my very first car. Word of warning though this car is not cheap to maintain because it is a very special car. The engine layout is not like conventional cars and to fix any engine trouble it's recommended to see a Saab specialist. Parts are not cheap too. But if you are willing to spend a bit, it will be well worth the extra money as it defi

Back in 2005, my dad bought a 1985 Saab 900 Turbo at an auction for just $60, but it doesn't start or run, because the $500 harness is so toast, so we had to sell it, because he can't afford that part and sold it to someone else. Maybe someday, I'll find another one of these. They're a nice collectible and old European car. ;D

Nice :)
