What is a reasoable price for a `99 9-5? - Advice needed
I need some input from you fellow Saabers.
I am about to sell my beloved 1999 9-5 Arc 2.3t, manual, and wonder what is a reasonable price I could sell it.
I have seen asking prices from $1900-$5800 for this model year, with this mileage.
A dealer offered $3000, and I am hesitating if I should take it, or trying to sell it myself.
The car has about 148K Miles on it. It is very clean inside and outside. (few pics in my garage gallery)
The oil has been changed with full synth. regularly during the last 40K miles, since I own it.
The oil pump was changed approx 2000 miles ago, the AC works well.
I am not aware of any faults of it.
I would really appreciate any thoughts on it.
Z
edit: The car is located in Hazel Park, MI

How much time do you have to sell it? 146K miles may not be that much for a Saab 9-5 but it may be difficult to sell to someone who is not familiar with these cars.
$3000 doesn't seem like a bad price for a 13 year car. Are you trading it in on another car or just selling it to a dealer?

The sooner the car goes, the better, because a friend of mine is dealing with it (since I can`t go back to the US), and I don`t want to waste his time and energy too much.
The car is not a trade in, just a simple sell.

Thank you for the input guys.
Thinking about all the hassle we can avoid and everything considered, I tend to accept the price.
