Now a eucalyptus-green piece has gone under the hammer on the auction site Bring a Trailer.
It is a 9000 Aero with a five-speed manual box and only 47,000 English miles on the odometer, corresponding to 7,564 miles.
The car was sold in Los Angeles, California, USA. (Photo: Bring a Trailer)Two owners in 31 years
The 9000 was produced until 1998 and the car in question, a 1994 model, had the same owner between 1994 and 2019.
In addition to the unique paint, the car is equipped with a sunroof, windshield wipers for the headlights, fog lights, a wing and a rear windshield wiper.
The hood and front fenders have some stone chips.
In total, over 500,000 Saab 9000s were produced. (Photo: Bring a Trailer)
