You sound like you're putting some major bucks into this car--in addition they are going up in value steadily. As these car move into the classic category originally becomes everything. An original to year and model Saab color is good, but THE original color is the only way to go for long term value. If you paint it a different color sooner or later some nick or chip (even in an out of the way spot) will allow the original color to show through and it just KILLS the value. In fact I'd avoid painting it altogather if the paints in good enough condition.
