I'm sorry to see that John has had so much trouble with his V6. That's not been my experience. To Brian in NM I'd say that "V6 vs. 4" is really a matter of preference and your own needs. MPG, for example, is quite a bit better with the 4. The V6 is smoother and quieter. And so on.
From time to time I see people on this BB devolve into "only a 4-cylinder can be a true SAAB engine" and "the V6 is a GM engine so WATCH OUT!" and so forth. In my opinion it is an argument that is silly, untenable, and generally unproductive.
Go with your preference and match your purchase to your needs. Good luck!
