This 1979 Saab 900 Turbo is a 5-door hatchback that is powered by a turbocharged 2.0L inline-four paired with a 4-speed manual. The model was only sold in North America for a couple of years, and this example was discovered by the seller three years ago in British Columbia after it had been sitting for some time. The blue exterior is faded, the interior is upholstered in a blue velour, and Saab Inca wheels are equipped. This Saab 900 is now being offered at no reserve in North Vancouver with a clean British Columbia title in the seller’s name.

Saab replaced the 99 series with the 900 in 1978, and the 5-door hatch body style was only available in North America from 1979 to 1980. This early 900 features the slim taillights from the 99, plus a trailer hitch, fog lights, a SAAB rear window louver panel, mesh headlight covers, and a manual sunroof. Within the past year, the seller has replaced the bumper, grille, and radiator support.

Inca wheels are equipped at each corner. The paint is faded and has a heavy patina, with areas of corrosion at the lower quarters.

The driver’s seat upholstery is worn as shown above, and the rest of the blue velour interior can be seen in the gallery. An electric sunroof is equipped along with factory A/C. A triple-gauge center console is featured.

Equipment includes a Kenwood stereo, a triple-gauge lower console, factory A/C, and a boost gauge. The odometer shows 143k kilometers (~89k miles), with true mileage unknown. The seller estimates he has added about 5k kilometers during his ownership.

The turbocharged 2.0L inline-four is paired via a chain drive to a 4-speed manual transmission, and an oil change was recently completed.

The seller reports that if the car is not driven for a while the power steering rack is initially a bit stiff.

Spare front seats in an alternate upholstery pattern are included.
