Ah cars. There's no car bulletin board in the world upon which I have not seen this very same post. Cars are cars and they are complex machines that will always need maintenance, some less expensive than others. The VW's I owned had no more or fewer problems. than my Saabs do and neither had more problems than I expected from a car...
No, I know I'll be driving Saabs for a long time to come. The only possibility is if my wife decided she wanted a different type of car and one, I highly doubt it - she's the one that sold me on a Saab in the first place, and two, if she did, she'd probably want something that was definitely more expensive to fix (vintage Mercedes or something).
