My '00 9-5 comes up in July. got a call and letter from Saab Financial that lowered the buyout from about $22,100 to 20,900 without me asking. I pressed for more, but they were quite firm, citing the residual insurance issue.
The way I look at it, I signed the lease thinking it was a pretty cheap way to buy the car and had the other advantage that I could walk away after 3 years without any downside market risk on resale (in case I got a lemon.) Saab sweetened that deal even more by knocking off the $1200, so I'm not ticked off.
That said, I will look to see if there are better ways to spend $20,900 than buying my particular Saab wagon.
