After my '88 was totalled, I found 2 SPGs for sale in NJ.
One of them was an '88 at a dealer. This poor thing was a serious dog that had been abused, transplanted, scarified, dashboard-damaged, smokified, and was generally too ashamed of its condition to boost beyond mid yellow. The dealer wanted to raise the price after he heard that it was something special at some point in its life. I really wanted to tell the fellow who test drove it after me what I thought of it.
The other one was a one-oner car that was very decently taken care of. The owner was a SAABophile and was getting a 9^3 convertible to take its place. In the three years (has it really been that long?) since I got it, I have replaced the headliner, water pump, a few hoses, A/C, brakes, rear axle, and I'm getting ready to replace the transmission. But it's now a 13-year old car with 130k miles.
It sounds like I was lucky.
