I paid $20/key with no warranty as to the quality of the cut key. Some of the knockoff keys that you find are made with a harder metal that can be hard to mill properly. Still, worst case is you get the blank and electronics for cheap, and if the key gets mis-cut you can order a pre-cut key from one of the Saab parts folks online and stick the electronics in that. Considering the cost of having to replace a TWICE because of a lost/no key situation, spending a max of $100 on a spare key assembly is good insurance.
Also, if you need the key code it should be printed on the ignition cylinder. You can pull that out pretty easily with a working key and a small screwdriver to release the latch in the cylinder.
