merlot is a great colour. looks good with either gray or tan interior also!
I wouldn't be overly concerned with the various potential problems. If you have the full history, maybe check when things like the DIC, belts/pullies/tensioner, CPS, hoses etc were last done (if ever) to gauge likelyhood of failure (eg if it's worth having a few spare parts on hand)... Be careful with the suspension. Ours looked good when we got it back in april + 4000 miles later (driving with some moderately heavy loads, but nothing I've never subjected our other Saabs to), the rear end sags + I've shredded a tire! still drives nicely though... in the process of fixing... you can find all the info you need on this stuff with a search of this bb...
these are fantastic highway cars! enjoy...
