Those SAAB mechanics are notorious liars....I have a 2002 9-3 ragtop which is quite similar. They are good cars with one or two caviats, the chassis is a little floppey depending on how you drive, your local road conditios but can be firmed up with Genuine Saab's bigger rear anti-roll bar (100 bucks) and the more expensive 6 point front brace if you are more serious...If the Saab guy has taken care of it for a while that could make it a good bet, regular oil changes and the like. Oh, the alternators are totally buried on those cars compared to your '88, can be a surprise cost if replacement needed, some folks replace the brush rig proactively. That's really not too many miles for a '99.
Good luck,
John
