...'99 9-5 2.3lpt, 4 cyl, 5 spd man- bought it used- and I love it!
I have to say though, it hasn't been trouble free... NO CAR IS!
I bought mine back in '02 and have put about 61K miles on it. I'm now at 107K miles and I plan to bring this car to over 200K miles.
I like to DIY my car so I've saved a litte $$$ and learned some things.
The hold-ups it's had are the typical known issues: turbo, code 08, DI, crankshaft position sensor, and PCV hoses.
Depending on the history of the car you're looking at, many of these small bugs may already be ironed out. My guess is that you can't beat the price for all that you get.
If you buy this car, you're buying more than a car. There's a whole community of interesting and helpful people here that care deeply about their SAABs. I definitely feel connected to my car!
