i also have a '94 900 SET (SE Turbo) and love it. the only two things that bother me is that '95's got keyless entery and a lumbar support (plus a few other less important things) but the seats are still the most comfortable i've sat in. check the SID (Saab Information Display)- that thing above the radio- they have a tendency of loosing pixles (often in rows) while this doesn not effect function or for the most part legibility, the aesthetics of it bother some- about $450-500 for the part. If it has a CD changer make sure it works. there thends to be an intermittent CD changer failure in af few of the NG900's- every once in a while mine stops working for liek a few hours... but this only happens once in a great while, so i won't bother to try to fix it. make sure the climate control fan operates in a mannar that seems normal to yoo. Some cars ahd problems while on 'auto' mode where the fan seems to have a mind of its own (mostly high speed).

be sure to get hre out on the highway at about 55-75 mph. things like alignment, wheel balance and out of round rims tend to make themseves noticed at around these speeds.

Again, i'm giving you all the bad information (b/c that's what you asked for) and none of the good. i love my car and enjoy the drive to work and back every day. the maintence is a little high on these cars, but if you take good care of them they can last 150k easy, and many much longer. and they will be one of most rewarding (and practical) cars you can buy and drive for a about 10 grand.

good luck!
