Is this on the window sticker or on the dealer invoice? Is it printed as a part of the "official" invoice, or is it added by the dealer? Suggest you go to saabnet.com and click on the "BuySaabOnline" ad that appears at the top. This should give you an idea what kind of deal you are getting (or not getting). The site is actually Mearig Saab in Lancaster, PA. You have to give a name and e-mail info to get the price, but I don't think they're going to nag you. Personally, I'd find another dealer. Most dealers don't give a damn where you bought the car anyway because service business alone is a big moneymaker. If this amount is printed in the invoice, it could be the "holdback," which is money the dealer gets eventually. (The reason that dealers can sell cars "at invoice" and still make money)
