Saab 900 2nd Gen

The second-generation Saab 900, known as the NG900, arrived for the 1994 model year and marked the brand's first new car under GM ownership. Built on the GM2900 platform shared with the Opel Vectra, it retained classic Saab styling cues like the clamshell hood, wraparound windshield, and center-console ignition. It was offered as a 3-door coupe, 5-door hatchback, and 2-door convertible, with power coming from naturally aspirated 4-cylinders, a GM-sourced 2.5L V6, or Saab's own iconic 2.0L turbocharged four.

Collectors are drawn to the NG900 as a bridge between classic Saab heritage and modern usability. The Turbo models, particularly the desirable 'Viggen' predecessor coupes and convertibles, offer strong performance and a quintessential Saab experience. The availability of GM-sourced parts makes some maintenance easier than on older models, providing an accessible entry point to the brand for new enthusiasts. The convertible remains a stylish and affordable drop-top.

With an average sale price around $6,500, the NG900 market is very approachable. The top of the market, around $13,500, is reserved for pristine, low-mileage Turbo convertibles and special editions. The vast majority of sales are well under $10,000, with high-mileage sedans and non-turbo models often trading for less than $3,000. It's a market where condition and specifications, not just year, dictate value.

Prices for the Saab 900 range from about $1,250 for project cars to $13,500 for excellent low-mileage examples.
