I would say based on your job discription, your best bet would be a late model 9-5 Sedan in any trim level. The Viggen (2 or 4 door)is not a good daily driver unless you have perfect roads and parking spots (low clearance). Parts for 9000 are getting expensive and somewhat hard to find. Late model, just off lease 9-5's are usually low milage, cheap compared to a 2006 new models and have plenty of life in them. Being that they are still fairly new, SAAB techs know how to fix'em if they do happen to break. All of the 4Cy Turbo's give great HWY milage.
