I bought a used 2004 93SS Arc, our second Saab, - about 10 months ago, and am still truly 'wowed' by the car. IMO, the ride is amazing, the handling is precise, and the size is just right - but I am not carting a young family around so I don't have any knowledge of how it would fare under that test. I have never gotten less than around 28 mpg; typical is 30+ on the commute. Issues? Emblem replaced, recall on brake vacuum pump, broken front coil spring, key fobs replaced,all handled smoothly under warranty - also an elusive rattle or two. But the driving experience FAR outweighs any imperfections thus far.
I agree w/ Boston Dave; price does seem a bit high- but maybe that's due to CPO and the area you are in?
