The '02, 85xxx mi., no repairs in over a year. '99LPT, 118xxx mi., Exhaust and E-brake cable.
Wife burns mid-grade in the '99LPT 5spd. With short drive to work (10 min. and stops to shop) there is no value in 93. Mpg's are 26.5 - 28.5 with either.
I have a 50 mi. round trip to work, mostly open road (no interstate)and few lights. '93 octane yields 32- 33.4 on a tankfull and 89 is 1.5 to 2mpg less last time I checked.
I agree that 93octane can be seen as an even better value now.
I buy my cars used, and the Saab is a tremendous value after someone else has taken the 'new car' depreciation hit. Then I drive them to 250,xxx plus mi. and basically give them away.
This board is the best!
