It's an automatic transmission. When you shift into reverse, nothing happens, the engine just revs when you hit the accelerator. I actually drove it home from the the local mechanic (the non-Saab place) and the thing does shift in forward gears, though slowly. The timing of the shifts seems all wrong--kinda random. I was able to shift manually, too, though the shifts didn't take place immediately.
Anyway, I do know that these engines will go a long, long time, my 900 had 292,000 on it before it died of cancer, and my current base 9000 has 265,000. Which makes me think I should try to revive the Aero and trade up (it has 165,000), though I really don't need all the bells and whistles. Thanks everyone else for your help . . .
