So they offer an inch and take you for a yard.
Aero front rotors are around $80 each at genuinesaab.com. Rears are not to expensive are avail aftermarket.
This is another case where you can DIY and not deal with Saab or the dealer.
Many have installed EBC pads on Aero's to avoid the high wear rate. I installed those on my 3rd day with my 03 Aero, that was 37K ago. I have my 3 day old Saab pads on a shelf. There may be other good pads that ar not abrasive.
If you do the dealer thing, you spend all that money and get the same abrasive pads on new rotors, no thanks. You also do not want to install your old abrasive pads on new rotors.
As for warping, you could have the rotors machined and put them back and run the remaining life out of them and the old pads.
