This thread's purpose is for pointing out cars CURRENTLY FOR SALE that have INTERIORS WITH GREAT COLOR COMBINATIONS.

This car is a unicorn. It's the only year the convertible SAAB 9-3 was available with the turbocharged V-6. In other words this (one year ONLY car) is the pinnacle SAAB Convertible ever made. Only 711 were imported into the United States! The engine is a SAAB-tuned General Motors LP9 producing 280hp@5500rpm 270lb/ft@1900rpm although Hirsch Performance will do a reflash for ~$300 which bumps the output to 330hp@5500rpm 320lb/ft@2500rpm

Sold for $9593

If you read the SAAB forums getting parts for late-model SAABS has not turned out to be the problem as was feared. The current owners took over all assets of what was SAAB including all the production machinery and employ a staff of several hundred people dedicated solely to manufacturing genuine replacement parts.

 

Always thought these were beautiful cars.

 

I wonder what this sold for and what will become of it.
Quote, "the last SAAB."

The time in which NEVS was allowed to manufacture cars branded as SAAB has now expired. NEVS is now owned by the Chinese Evergrande Group, the world's most valuable real estate company as part of its current plan to expand into "alternative, income-generating businesses away from the property market". For instance Evergrande now owns 45% of Faraday Future, the electric vehicle startup.

 

I remember the 2005 Chrysler Firepower concept car but I never saw the interior until tonight. It's like an even more upscale version of the Crossfire's "tuxedo" interior. What a great stablemate it would have made in my garage with both external & internal styling queue's taken from the Crossfire. The interior to me is drop-dead gorgeous. Tell me, did you notice that the shift **** was the only use of wood? An interesting if questionable touch. To me using vanilla leather in place of the wood would have been a more natural choice. Jump to 6:06 in the video to see the interior.
It was built on top of the Dodge Viper platform and was even described by Chrysler as an upscale Viper. It used the new for 2005 6.1L Hemi V8 making 425hp/420tq.
