This 1994 Saab 900 Turbo convertible is one of 500 Commemorative Edition examples built to celebrate the end of classic 900 production and has spent its life in Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico. The seller is the proprietor of a Saab repair shop and acquired the vehicle from a customer in 2010. The car is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter “red box” inline-four paired with a five-speed manual transmission and is equipped with SPG side panels, 16″ wheels from a 9000 Aero, Koni shocks, a Momo Prototipo steering wheel, and a Kenwood CD player. A repaint in black has been performed during current ownership, and work in 2019 included installing stainless steel brake lines as well as replacing the clutch and soft top. This 900 Turbo shows 156k miles and is offered with a parade boot, manufacturer’s literature, some service records, removed stock parts, a clean Carfax report, and clean New Mexico title in the seller’s name.

Originally Nova Black, the car was repainted its current non-metallic black in March 2011, while the bumpers and lower side trim from a 900 SPG wear a satin black finish. The front-hinged hood, trunklid, and bumpers were refinished again in fall of 2019 due to scratches, at which time a replacement black cloth convertible top with a glass rear window was fitted. The original Nova Black paint remains visible in the door jambs as well as on the underside of the hood and trunk, and photos of some body panel VIN tags are provided in the gallery.

The 16″ three-spoke alloy wheels were sourced from a Saab 9000 Aero and are shod with Bridgestone Potenzena RE760 Sport tires showing 2012 date codes. Suspension modifications include reinforced front control arms as well as Koni shock absorbers that were fitted in 2010. Four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes are equipped, and stainless steel brake lines were installed in the fall of 2019. The front turn signals and the rear light clusters were replaced during the repaint and European-market H4 headlights are equipped, while the windshield was replaced in June 2012. A set of uninstalled fog lights is included in the sale.

The tan leather interior features reupholstered power-adjustable front bucket seats as well as a rear seat that retains black piping. The seller replaced the leather door and rear speaker trim in 2019. A Kenwood CD head unit has been added to the center console and is linked with Polk Audio water-resistant speakers. The keyless entry system includes a remote but the alarm siren is inoperative, while the cruise control system has been removed.

A three-spoke Momo Prototipo steering wheel with a Saab center cap has been fitted in place of the stock airbag steering wheel, which is said to be included in the sale. The six-digit mechanical odometer reads approximately 156k miles, around 27k of which were added by the seller over the last decade.

The turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four features an SPG version of the “red box” Automatic Performance Control system and was factory-rated at 185 horsepower for the Commemorative Edition. The head gasket and power steering rack are said to have been replaced by the seller’s shop in February 2013 at 147k miles.

Power is sent to the front wheels through a five-speed manual transmission, and photos showing the 2019 clutch replacement are provided in the gallery. An aluminum protective skid plate has been added to the underside of the engine, and the seller notes an intermittent muffler rattle.

The April 2020 Carfax report shows no accidents or other damage and lists registration in Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico between 1994 and its most recent entry in December 2018. A driving video is provided below, and additional in-car footage can be viewed here.
