I searched a long time for a 5-speed Aero, spending a bunch of time on eBay, researching sellers, etc. (I had already boght a 9-5 wagon for my wife on eBay, with really wonderful results...)
I eventually found the perfect car on Saab's website, using the CPO search feature. This was 2 years ago, and as I recall, I had to enter all kinds of different ZIP codes to look at cars not within 200 miles of my home. This was actually kind of interesting, as I was able to get a good idea of pricing around the country, etc.
I ended up buying a CPO 5-speed Aero (2001) with 27K on the odo, 70 miles down the Thruway from my home. I always wondered why the salesman at my local dealership, who I had told I was looknig for another Sabb, didn't bother to do such basic "homework." It's been an absolutely amazing car to drive, trouble-free and fun to drive. The CPO, which just expired, was worth the extra $$, IMHO.
