17/25 suggests it is the v6 engine. I had one of these cars for years -- a 03 arc wagon -- and loved it. It was dead-on reliable. Unfortunately, it was totaled while parked about 18 months ago. It had 146k on the odo.
The mpg isn't great on the v6. I never saw better than 28-29 on the highway, and that was only with my foot out of it. My foot was not usually out of it. This engine pulls very nicely. Strong, smooth power boosted by a small but quick-to-spool turbo unit. Different from SAAB's turbo fours, which I have also owned.
A service history would be important to me as a buyer.
Good luck,
--Dan
