NP, I'm in a similar boat to you and have decided to get a 5 year used car warranty. It's not cheap but everyone says expect 500 to 1,000 in mantinence and repair costs per year so I'm convinced this thing will pay for itself in 5 years (it's about $2300). And another point: I have spent a lot of time reading about various 9.5 issues at this site. Keep in mind that this site is filled with hyper-sensitive saab enthusiasts who really know their stuff, but don't let it freak you out too much. For instance, I don't know what a DIC or DCI is or some thing like that, but apparently they fry a lot in 9.5's and the car doesn't run when this happens. That's why I'm getting a warranty. Lastly, I'm getting a 99 wagon with 58k for 10k so your price isn't that great of a deal. I found another this morning with 51k for 10,500k, good luck.
