Individial variations aside, a 9-5 is a recommended car by popular consumer magazines that emphasize overall reliability as well as safety. 2001 was a good year for 9-5's, though it is pre Mid Cycle Enhancement of 2002, the MCE improvement are very subtle and in the base model the 2001 actually looks and feels richer inside with nicer wood and more gathering to the leather.
Seems like a steal for $8k and you'll be buying the most reliable Saab ever ! The 2001's actually won the JD Powers Initial Quality Survey that year! You have every reason to expect a vastly more refined and reliable Saab than your 9000 with more Saab DNA, as in the key on the floor and genuine Swedish styling, than any other Saab ever, IMHO.
