Vehicle History & Overview

Sold new in July 2000, this Viggen resided in Oregon and Washington with its first three owners. The fourth owner purchased the vehicle in April 2017 and moved it to Idaho, where it stayed until the current owner purchased the vehicle in 2021. The car is believed to be highly original other than some cosmetic repairs to the front bumper by a prior owner. A clean Carfax report helps lend credence to the above statement and highlights some service history. Additional more recent service records are provided by the seller along with the original purchase agreement.

The Viggen was Saab’s answer to the established German sports-sedan trio. Starting with the already capable 9-3, Saab added a larger displacement, 2.3L high-output turbocharged inline-four, stiffer suspension, upgraded brakes, special 17-inch wheels, unique front/rear bumpers, and a rear spoiler. The cars have an interesting personality thanks to Saab’s link to fighter jets, which was incorporated into the car itself and marketing campaign. Today the cars have earned a following among enthusiasts seeking something different.
