Offered $5800 today for my immaculate 02 Linear wagon, with 64k miles. (at a BMW dealer) Absolutely would not budge on the price.
Last weekend a Bentley dealer (with a used Saab I was interested in), looked up recent Mannheim values -- very few Saab wagons went through there recently, he offered me $9600.
Instead I traded it on a new 2008 9-7, my Saab dealer gave me $9500 -- which I thought was ok. The thing had been towed there last weekend for a new fuel pump, and also needs motor mounts and a/c stepping motor.
My lesson -- buying a Saab is financial suicide, and keeping one beyond the warranty or certified warranty is completely insane (unless you are a DIY mechanic). In the past 12 months, I've spent nearly $3500 in repairs on the car.
Love, really love the 9-5 -- fun to drive on the road. I consider the 9-7 a stop gap, then I'll see in a couple of years what new things Saab has to offer, or if gas prices have sky rocketed, what the newest hybrids are like!
Good luck with your car decision...
Pete
