"Several different Saab 900 specials were produced in Trollhättan, and it's quite interesting that a somewhat understated version has found its place among enthusiasts. Here is a nice example of such a car."

Description

It was delivered to its first owner in August 1989, making it the only year the 900 Special was available. This model was more affordable, featuring an eight-valve engine and only available in Odoardogrå paint with oxblood leather interior. This particular example seems to have remained on the west coast throughout its life, with three actual owners. The current owner purchased the car in 2002 and, since 2007, it has been used as an enthusiast and summer vehicle. The latest inspection was done on June 3, 2024.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car features a characteristic sound from a stainless steel 2" exhaust system installed by a previous owner. He also fitted different springs, resulting in the car's slightly lower stance. The engine, transmission, brakes, and wheel alignment all feel good, providing the familiar experience for anyone who has driven a 900 Turbo. A new radiator has also been installed.

  • Interior condition:

    The patinated and attractive leather interior is in good condition, although the front seats could benefit from some conditioning and dyeing. The buttons for the power windows and sunroof are surprisingly well-worn, indicating they have been used frequently over the years. The dashboard has a classic small crack at the top. The owner has installed a new headliner but chose not to cover the sunroof panel, as it's a complex task. However, fabric for the sunroof panel is available if the new owner wishes to undertake this job. Speakers are installed in the rear shelf, which the current owner has considered replacing with an untouched shelf of the same color but has not yet found.

  • Exterior condition:

    Original paint in good condition, with new headlights at the front. There is some clear coat lifting on the upper part of the front bumper. The car is equipped with newer original 6.5" accessory wheels in Aero style, but the original wheels are also available and will be included with the purchase.

  • General condition:

    A bit personally equipped and in a nice, reasonable enthusiast condition, with a few minor details to address for those who want it even better.

Facts about the model

The Saab 900 T8 Special was a special edition model produced in only 805 units, primarily for the Swedish market in 1989. It featured essentially the same equipment and appearance as the Aero but came with an 8-valve engine and a lower price. The T8 Special also received the same chassis setup as the T16 model. All these cars were assembled in Finland and, according to reports, therefore also received better rust protection.
