I do agree with Jason, especially if getting an 02 with auto. I have an arc and the 5 speed and stability control will make a differance. 4 vs 6, big debate, some saabers will tell you there is only a 4. My research tells me both engines are sound, the 4 will get better gas milage and may never need a timing belt, but they have had minor DI issues. The 6 six doesn't seem to have that problem (as per consumer reports) but less fuel economy and timing belts at 60k, about $600, although the first one is on Saab, so you would be good till 120k.
