1978 Saab 99 Turbo
CLEARANCE SALE IN WALPOLE MAINE.
The Saab 99 turbo is famous for bringing turbos to the common man. A comfortable ride, stand alone styling and built like a jet, the 99 turbo solidified Saab as a real player in the market.
This particular car doesn't come in the sexiest of 70's colors but it compliments the chrome and clear corner turn signals well. The matching wheels could look amazing if polished or restored. The ad says it has mild rust, but with the limited pictures, I can't find anything drastic. The body looks straight and the driveline only has 71,000 miles on it. "Drove great last year but has a fuel issue now" Soooooo there is that.
The owner says he is getting rid of it because he has too many projects. That and "need gone asap" are the two best things to read on craigslist. Sure it needs some tender loving care... and a bunch of money but what would you rather spend it on? Rent? A social life? None of those come with an "EXTRA" button.
Pros
- Might be able to make some money
- More rare than a wild Charizard
- "Extra" might mean extra cheese on your pizza for life
Not-so Pros
- Projects take time
- Projects take money
- "Extra" might mean extra small talk with the co-worker no one likes
