Personally, I like SAABs, the 9-5 in particular, but I'm probably prejudiced since I own one.
In terms of reliability, I've experienced some failures that cause me to question the reliability:
water pump
power steering pump
DIs (I've been lucky, knock on wood, I haven't had these fail)
Timing belt tensioner pulley
heater blower
For a car with only 73K miles, the failure of these parts raises a red flag.
Perhaps just bad parts, I'll see how long the replacements last.
Still a great car.
