Convincing someone to buy a Saab...

I have a friend who currently lives in Woodstock, NY with her badass Lexus LX470. But soon, she's moving to San Francisco while still keeping her house in Woodstock and the Lexus in its garage, so she'll have two homes and two cars. However, she hasn't gotten the second car yet - the car for SFO. I think a new Saab (she has all the money in the world) would be perfect for her. She doesn't know a whole lot about cars, except that her boyfriend insists that Saabs are unreliable and crappy and too expensive to repair and that it's too hard to find places to fix them (all of which I think are bullshit). So how do I convince her to get a Saab? I'm thinking either a 2002 9-3 SE or a 2002 9-5 SE SportWagon... but basically anything except a convertible. I'll probably find a way to drag her to the local Saab dealership tomorrow - but what else can I TELL her? Why should she get a Saab over an Audi? A Lexus? A Volvo? A Mercedes-Benz? (Regardless of whether or not you guys think a person should get a Saab over those other cars, I want to sell a Saab to her because I think it would be perfect for HER.) How is the whole "Saabs are unreliable" thing untrue? What else can I say? She's looked at brochures and what she sees she likes. What else can I add? Thank you guys so much for your input!
