With proper maintenance, you shouldn't worry about 'too many miles'. Saabs are built with longevity in mind. I guess whenever the engine dies (if it ever does), then you've probably come close to too many miles. But don't start to worry until you get around 400,000 miles =] JKWIPR wrote: > > I'm in the market for a used Saab. I've looked a few 900's around the > 100k-120k miles.
