2000 9-5 LPT - Sell as a whole or part out?

All,
I've got a MY2000 9-5 LPT with about 155k miles, 5-speed manual. I've been hanging in there with all of typical saab issues, but I am at the crossroads of needing some major repairs (exhaust, rear suspension rebuild, rear brakes, TB, turbo, etc.) and am starting to think it's time to move on, and give up my goal of getting her to 200k. So, my question is: Should I take the easy way out and see what I can get for it as a whole, or try to "maximize" the value and part it out? The engine is sludge-free (had the oil pan dropped a few months ago and it is clean, PCV upgrade a couple of years back), transmission shifts fine, exterior lenses in good shape, interior parts are all clean, H/K AS-3 sound system in good working order. Given the repairs it needs, I don't see it being worth much more than $2000 altogether, but separately, maybe more? Has anyone tried this route? Please let me know. Thanks!
Nik.
