I have 87 9000s I just bought on December 31, 1997. I had it put through
a pre-buy inspection at Swedish Specialists in Lorton, VA. The car had
145,890 miles on it, and the previous owner had to square away problems
the inspection uncovered. I paid $3400.
Another friend of my with an 87 9000 turbo fixed a rough idle and
stalling problem two weeks ago. The car runs like silk. If you want to
find out potential problems, go to the www.nhtsa.gov site. You can check
on technical service bulletins or recalls for Saab and any other make.
Just make sure any used Saab you buy is thoroughly checked out by an
independent Saab mechanic before you buy. It can save you a lot of
money.
