Gotta remember though that a slightly informed buyer would not have paid anywhere close to the $42k sticker.
I was on the BMW roadfly board this morning (I have a 1998 528i as well) talking about what a great VALUE Saabs are. You get a lot for your money if you play smart. I figure the best way to play smart with Saabs is to drive a killer deal (GM employee or supplier discount, rebate, owner loyalty rebate) on a new one and then drive till the wheels fall off. By then who cares what it's worth. Or, buy a three year old one that's still under warranty. Either way you get a lot for your money.
BMW's are great cars, don't even try to argue with me on that. But, they cost a lot to buy and maintain. They are not a good value. Saabs are a great value. I own both for different reasons.
