The V6 is not that bad if you change the timing belt + tensioner pulleys every 60k. You must get the updated kit from SAAB and do not skimp on the job; have an experienced shop do it.
There are some maintenance issues to be aware of as well: leaky valve cover gaskets, etc. Spend some time searching the BB archives for details. If you DIY these are not big $ or too difficult.
Generally speaking a 1994 is not as good as 97 or 98. Redesigns to the suspension and A/C among other things make the later model years better.
As a result, the retail is pretty low on a V6. But I love mine!
