No patience...

Okay, so I have convinced my wife that we need a third Saab and it is to be a convertible to go along with the 9'3 and mod'd SPG.
I've been looking for a little while to try to find one the perfect one, which would ideally have low miles, new or perfect top, not be white or beige body, be a '91-'94, be local (Washington DC Metro) and, uh, ... be an... you know ... automatic.... She, wonderful as she is, won't learn to drive stick.
Throw that many criteria into the mix and there aren't that many cars out there and some of the prices I've seen are insane. There's a 5spd @ HBL in Tysons Corner, but it needs a trans, has at least 6 cuts in the interior, is leaking wiper fluid from one of the headlight wipers, is scratched all the way down one side, is literally missing the switch (including the piece to which the switch would connect to) on part of the power seat controls, and may not be boosting beyond base boost... All of this can be yours for the initial asking price of $10,000. They offered to wholesale it to me for $5900, but at the $1500 to $2000 for the trans, it's not such an attractive price anymore. Besides, for us, its no good cuz it's a stick. Conversion to an auto would be nearly $3k, so that's not a viable option.
Otherwise, I passed on a gorgeous 1999 9'3convertibe for the (truly) amazing price of $14,500 (5 speed too). Ugh. that one hurt to pass up.
Otherwise, nothing to compelling on Saabnet for me right now..........................
Get's me to the point... I've got no patience... Type A personality coming through here.
Thanks for letting me rant.
Oh, if you happen to know who keyed my car, could you kick in the !$%$1@# for me? Thanks.
