I've had 2 9Ks at a time since 2004 and have never approached anything remotely like that for both combined. Most items are things you do on any car: oil, tires, brakes, belt, exhaust. Sure, I just had a big repair bill on one (the original clutch was replaced at 182K), but those go on any car at that kind of mileage
For that matter, we have 4 Saabs, with an average of 150K on them, and find them pretty cheap to keep. Sure, I DIY, but they just don't need a whole lot. In my experience the cost is similar to other cars, DIY or otherwise. I do have a good indy, though.
