As a fellow lover of the SAAB (I have an 84' 900 2 dr), I understand what you're going through. I continue to make repairs: exhaust system, ball joints, wheel bearing, emergency brake, frozen brake caliper, front brakes, CV joint (and that's all in the last year) and somehow still love the car that takes so much of my money. My suggestion would be to a)make as many of the less complicated repairs yourself and sink some money into the rest - I think SAABs require that you drop a lot of money at once but then they go on and on for a while after that or b)take that $3000 and buy another used SAAB in better shape. Best of luck. aj in va -- aj8cnopsamy.edschool.virginia.edu the original LMW
