I've owned a 2010 9-5 Aero since Dec '10. 18,500 miles so far, one warranty claim back in July of last year for a right taillight assembly. Bulb came loose and shorted out the socket ... $200 parts/labor if I did not have the warranty for that. We've driven it in negative 10 degree winters in Wyoming where it sat out all night and started right up. We had it sitting out in front of my office in 100+ degree heat in Louisiana all summer last year, and will again this year. I enjoy it so much, I too am looking for one ... a second one ... but for variety, a manual transmission Turbo4.
My warranty is "suspended" now, of course, but I haven't paid the $2K for an extended warranty yet. Holding out hope that Mahindra is announced as the buyer this June and then all of us who bought 2010 and 2011 Saabs when they came with warranties will have their warranties reinstated. Of course, not holding my breath, but hoping. And again, it's been super reliable so far.
