My name is Saab. James Saab. I have specially manufactured this Saab for Secret Agents, Government Operatives (you know who you are), getaway drivers, people who want to Roll Coal but can’t afford the giant lifted pickup, or battlefield visibility hindering operations.
2003 Saab 9-5 Linear for Sale
This 2003 Saab 9-5 Linear with 130k miles and clear NH title was my family’s backup car, bought just barely broken in at 100,000 miles a few years ago. It has since been modified for Agent Operations as follows:
1: I have allowed the turbocharger to fail in a way that causes the vehicle to emit truly staggering amounts of smoke when the engine runs. Need to perform Evasive Maneuvers? No problem! This smoke screen is on ALL THE TIME so no need to hit any extra buttons to hide the car from the bad guys. (note: this feature requires the use of a fair amount of engine oil). To disable this feature, please install a new or rebuilt turbocharger.
2. I have allowed a small hole in the seal between the gas tank and the underseat area to occur, which lights up the check engine light, and leaves a faint smell of fuel inside and behind the vehicle. This is designed to frighten and nauseate your pursuers. If you want to disable this feature, a new gasket or a bit of aviation sealant are required.
3. Even if you are not being pursued, or in a chase of any kind, and are on a boring commute, every so often, almost every light on the dashboard comes on just to wake you up! This is a great feature for long drives, as big red exclamation points, brake warnings, all kinds of stuff pops up. Red Alert!! (Note: No braking or operational systems are actually affected by these lights. Lights apparently for entertainment purposes only, and they reset when you turn the car off and on again.)
All other body panels, interior, tires and wheels, seats, airbags, electronics etc. are unmodified, in excellent working order, and in good condition, with the exception of air conditioning, which was disabled to produce Extra Power. The air conditioning unit may actually have been installed in another vehicle by mistake.
Details of the selling of this vehicle are HIGHLY CLASSIFIED. Please respond via anonymous repeater (Craigslist does that for you) with interest. Once you have been vetted and passed security clearance I will respond. PRICE NEGOTIABLE. Code name: Purple Bollocks. Code Response: Limburger Motorcycle.
For over 15 years, Goran Aničić has been passionately focused on Saab automobiles and everything related to them. His initial encounter with Saab cars took place back in 2003 when the first Saab 9-3 and sedan version were introduced. At that moment, he was captivated by the car's Scandinavian design logic and top-notch engineering, and everything that followed stemmed from that first encounter. Later on, through his work at the editorial team of the Serbian automotive magazines "Autostart" and later "AutoBild," he had the opportunity to engage more closely with Saab vehicles. In 2008, he tested the latest Saab cars of that time, such as the Saab 9-3 TTiD Aero and Saab 9-3 Turbo X. In 2010, as the sole blogger from the region, he participated in the Saab 9-5ng presentation in Trollhättan, Sweden. Alongside journalists from around the world, he got a firsthand experience of the pinnacle of technological offerings from Saab at that time. Currently, Goran owns two Saabs: a 2008 Saab 9-3 Vector Sportcombi with a manual transmission, and a Saab 9-3 Aero Griffin Sport Sedan from the last generation, which rolled off the production line in Trollhättan in December 2011.
