My '99 9-3 Base CPO has been a reliability disaster

Since it is a CPO, I've spent little money on repairs, but have put in a lot of time dropping the car off for service. I've had virtually all of the reported "typical" problems except for the turbo seals, SID and engine failure. Since I am considering sale/trade-in, I'll also get to experience the atrocious resale value of the 9-3.
As a previous reply noted, the CR data comes from Saab owners. For those who don't like the CR conclusion, you should recall the quote from the very old comic strip "Pogo", "We have met the enemy, and they is us."
