Car for grandson

My grandson is getting his license and graduating from highschool. He doesn't have a lot to spend, I'm guessing $1500/2000 give or take. He wants a Saab, he always liked my NG900. The safety of Saabs I'm down for, but a little less sure about the performance potential--they're pretty fast for a new driver. We got our daughter a C900S auto when she started driving but not many Saabs in recent years were non-turbos. The other thing is whether he can afford the cost of maintenance. He doesn't know a thing about cars and grampa isn't around to help that much. The Saab would be the best bang for the buck in that price range verse Honda, Toyotas and the like. I'm trying to think of other brands that might offer Japanese reliability but are off the radar screen a bit in terms of resale value, or possibly simple, cheap to maintain domestics.
