We are some of those "die hard" manual people. Our only automatic SAAB of the 13 we've had was our last one- an '04 9-5 Arc wagon. I wasn't particularly impressed by the Sentronic, it's still an AT with a torque converter. As far as highway mileage, it will do as well as the manual, about 32 mpg (we're now driving an '04 9-5 Arc Wagon with 5-speed, a CPO car), but the in-town mileage is about 4 mpg difference (26 with this car, as opposed to about 22 with the auto).
On the other hand, if we lived in a large urban area, with all the lights and stop & go traffic during rush hours, etc., then it would be an auto, no contest.
