The consensus appears to be that you want A3/B3, that this is the "best" oil for your SAAB.
If you want to ignore that, I'm sure Rotella synth is a good oil, but as nwas replied, it is marketed as a diesel oil.
A retired petro-chemical engineer I know used the dino version in his VFR750, I've used it in my VFR800 (and the synth version).
