Today, with a little delay, we present one exceptional Saab 9-5. The proud owner of this car is 22-year-old Julian-Henry Strauß, from Cologne in Germany. He bought this Saab from a 83 Year old pharmaceutical technologist in Baden Württemberg in 2014. He bought the Saab new and drove it 14 Years, then Julian bought it from him with 92.000 Kilometer, and now it has 169.000 km.
As you can see on brilliant photos, Its in Perfect technical Condition. The car was produced in 2000 and Imported to Gemany in 2000 July. The car has a 3.0 diesel engine built in with a lowpressure Turbo around 6-10 PSI. This rate Diesel V6 engine delivers 225 hp and is paired with an automatic transmission.
Its the Griffin Variant, and it has whole Accesory you could possibly buy in 2000, such as Cooled/Heated Seats, Heated Rear Seats, Harman Kardon Prestige Sound System, Everything electric like Mirrors, Seats (even with Memory), 5 CD Charger in the Trunk…

Thats all about the big mods, there are some small modifications too but no need to mention. Thank you Julian for presenting his Saab and thank Oliver for the super-photos.
Ive seen some euro models with the 3.0 that came with a manual transmission. I would love to get my hands on something like that. I had a 99 9-5 3.0 and i loved it. Felt similar in power to an aero, but a little meatier. Everyone knows the b235R was better but i like the rarity of the 3.0
really lacking some kind of rear spoiler
I had this model few years ago,xcellent motor,but lever in gear box snapped,150,000 miles,,Saab agent was gob smacked.
Bästa saaben ägde en sådan i 10 år.vilken bra motor helt underbar att köra.
