I bought a 93 9000 turbo from a colleague for $200 with miles similar to yours, and overpaid ... :). But the '93 was the worst of the bunch, since it had traction control. I'm also very envious of your manual tranny.
What has killed me is all the "little" things that all seem to start at $150 -- especially the huge variety of sensors that just LOVE to fail intermittently or give confusing symptoms.
When it's running well, it's a sweet car. But when it's not ...
That said, I still have mine. Always trying to convince myself that once I replace "this part," all will be well. Eventually, I will own a $50,000 used Saab.
Best of luck. There are lots of really smart 9000 owners on this site -- in fact, I found another local 9000 owner on TSN who kindly loaned me his ignition cassette for diagnosis purposes.
Regards, Graham
