Well I'd say the 9K was more a real Saab than certain more recent models....
For a big car, I find it better handling and more chuckable than a C900, quicker steering too. Size wise it's actually shorter than a C900...
It's quieter, smoother and roomier.
Maintenance wise the only problem is certain things are harder to fix, eg clutch changes, it also eats engine mountings...
Electrics and rust could be a problem on very early cars, (hints of italian there....), but mines been trouble free and it's an ancient '89 model I picked up for 100 UKP....
But stick to post 95 models and I'm sure you'll have a very reliable motor. The 9000 was really was about the most conventional car Saab produced....
