Just because SAAB (or almost any company) specs something a certain way, doesn't mean that they're interested in the best quality.
Cost is usually the determining factor--witness our lovely center brake light plastic.
Around here, I've seen M1 0W-30 and 5W-30 discounted to around $4/qt. M1 0W-40 always seems to be $5/qt. For an oil change (4 qts), that's only a difference of $4 -- not an outrageous amount of money to pay to get the very best Mobil 1 there is.
