I am always suprised to hear of the maintenance costs for other 9000 owners. I have owned a '95 Aero, a '92 9000CDt auto, a '92 9000t 5 speed, a '91 9000t 5 speed and a '91 900t 5 speed. I generally put about 30k a year on them and have had no real maintenance issues on any of them - I think the most I ever sank into one was $1,000 over two years, mostly front end stuff. I purchased all of them with 100k or more miles on them, maybe all the expensive stuff was already repaired. Maybe I am jinxing myself, but I just have not experienced the high maintenance costs. If you are really nervous, you can always buy an upper end Penn or Winn waranty with a low deductible. I bought Penn waranty for my '95 Aero that covered everything except the AC for three years/unlimited milage for about $1,200.
