Also a owner of both makes. '83 5 series, '86 900s. Here are my .02 cents -I really like my BMW on the highway - it is a great cruiser, has four doors and is great for long distance trips. The six cylinder just purrs at 80 mph. For around town driving though I like the saab; better MPG, nicer drive feel, and is much better in snow and rain conditions. The saab is more functional for hauling stuff, going camping or fishing and for taking my dog along. Fit and finsish on both are great as well as being well engineered cars. It is generally easier to work on the BMW ,but the Saab community is easier to deal with. (read less snobby). It shouldn't make any difference to anyone, but just tell them you own an BMW and certain assumptions are made of you (yuppy!) even though both my cars are +15 years old. Another consideration; with any used BMW you can expect some serious cash outflow even if you do the work yourself, parts can be very high and if this car is only 5 bills you will certainly be writing some checks. My vote goes to SPG- esp.if you have a good runner. Wish I had one!
you can expect some serious cash flow
