Some confusion about CPO

I have seen a lot of posts deep in the middle of threads concerning whether you can get a pre 2004 CPO. People say that 04 is the earliest model year available certified. That's partly true because that's the oldest car they will certify TODAY.
However You can get an 03 or even an 02 depending on the "in service date" that was certified a couple years ago (before it was 4 years old) but it is still good for 6 years. Mine is an 03 with an in service date of Oct 2003. My 6 year CPO warranty expires Oct 2009. I'd hit the mileage limit first though since it has 87k. Also mine was not listed under CPO cars on saab's website perhaps because it is pre 2004, but the IRIS says CPO and I have other paperwork to back it up.
Just wanted to clarify this because some posts in long threads were mistaken but others reading those threads might be led astray. If buying a 2003 from a Saab dealer ask if the IRIS says certified. If it does though, they might not haggle as much.
