You also get a 6-speed manual transmission. There’s nothing better than that!
Saab Automobile enjoyed a smooth run over its nearly seven-decade-long existence. The iconic models of the Swedish carmaker were the 9000, 9000, 9-3 and 9-5. However, unfortunate events led to the automaker’s demise in 2012. However, the Swedish carmaker was not completely destroyed. NEVS purchased the company to produce 9-3-based electric vehicles without the Saab license.
Although the 9-3 might have been reincarnated in a battery-operated car, we found that the last remaining example of this breed was being sold in Italy. It’s also factory new.
This 9-3 black station wagon is listed as new on AutoScout24, even though it has 90 km (56 miles) on the odometer. It still looks brand new even after many years. It could be the last Saab that you can buy today. Talk about rare.
According to the listing, it was the last Saab manufactured by the company prior to its bankruptcy. It was taken to the Saab dealership at Pordenone, but was never sold. The 9-3 station wagon, which is the last of its kind in existence, is powered by the 130-horsepower turbodiesel TTiD4 Euro 5 engine. It’s mated with a six-speed manual transmission. It’s diesel, and it comes with a stick-shift – what’s not love?
The 9-3 stationwagon is equipped with modern features such as parking sensors, Bluetooth connectivity, proximity sensors, and many airbags.
This car will cost you EUR31,000, or around $35,000 at current exchange rates. This is a great deal considering it might be the last factory-new Saab that you can buy. If you are in Italy, you can visit the Zanetti Omero & C. showroom in Pordenone.
