How come no one's come out on the side of just keeping the Saab?
I assume it's paid off. And worth, what, 8k as a trade toward a 25k car? Maybe? New loan for 17k.
You could have $2k/year in repairs and still not come close to your VW payment. And you won't (well, shouldn't) have that many repairs. My '02 Aero hit 100k and end of CPO last July...only oil changes, front pads, transmission mount ($60 DIY), and leaking transmission cooler banjo bolts (tightened up = free...well, new set of Gear Wrenches $30)in the past 9mos/12k miles.
If you like the car, keep it and don't worry!
Of course, the car you're thinking about is sweeeeeeet.
