Depending on labor rate at a Saab dealer, maybe. My own fuzzy memory tells me that the first time I did it, the parts were $300+, back in '04 or '05. Tthe new one you're likely being quoted on is the entire assembly--all the connecting hoses plus the valve, then there's possibly replacing coolant, flushing that system, blah, blah, blah.
If you're able to dig in there and do it yourself and don't need new heater hoses and able to add coolant, then it's way too much.
Depending on the source (site sponsor or GM dealer that carries the same valve for a late '90s Cadillac Catera), the part should be under $100.
