WARNING about 'regular gas

If you live in a high-altitude area, "regular" gas in your area may be only 85 (US) octane.
DO NOT USE THIS, YOU MUST USE A MINIMUM OF 87 OCTANE!
Because your SAAB is turbocharged, you're effectively running at sea-level even at higher elevations, meaning you will not experience the power loss that normally aspirated cars do when you're in the mountains.
