Hello, all....Everyone has been very patient with me and my rantings over which new Saab to buy and I thank all of you.....OK....It is down to two choices...I know it is ultimately MY decision, however, your input is appreciated!

First....2001 9-5SE automatic sedan...silver/charcoal...MINT...45,000 miles, and is certified....$ 19,800.00.

Secondly....2001 9-5SE automatic wagon....black/charcoal....MINT...32,000 miles, but is out of warranty on February 9, 2005 ( my Birthday!) $18,995.00.

How do these two prices sound? Pretty fair?

In MY opinion, I want the black wagon....I plan on putting the Super Aero rims on it, and heavily tinting all the windows except for the windhsield, of course....It will be TOTALLY blacked out, with the super shiny brand new Super Aero rims standing out....SHARP!!

BUT...Am I a fool not to get the silver sedan that is certified for another 55,000 miles? Are these 2001 9-5SE's extremely reliable and almost trouble free? I know there are lemons, but, in general, am I taking a HUUUGE risk by NOT getting the certified one?

I have test driven both, and they drive equally smooth and accelerate well..I have NEVER owned a 9-5....many, many, 900's and 9-3's...NO 9-5's.

My heart is with the black Darth Vader wagon ALL the way...but I like to listen to my brain, too....

Thnx for reading......John
