Thanks to all of you for your responses, and also for offline responses by email.
The local Saab dealer is mainly a Saturn shop. The showroom clearly is oriented to selling Saturns, with 2 Saabs squeezed into a corner that's out of sight. There is a salesman there who has been selling Saabs for 16 years (he says) but I don't really care about the sales end of the operation. It's what goes on in the garage that matters more. That's an unknown to me. If anybody is in Halifax NS and knows about the dealership I'd appreciate hearing your views.
The 9-3 is at the end of its model cycle and I understand there's a redesign coming for 2003. The model's age shows in some things but I would hope it has given Saab/GM a chance to get problems out of the car.
The booklet of models, options and prices doesn't mention free maintenance with the Premium Package. It looks like Saab makes up some of the US/CAD currency differential by scrimping on the warranty. VW does the same thing. Since the package is $2,500 and includes a load of stuff I don't care about I wouldn't spring for it anyway.
