When buying a Saab should I avoid automatics?

I plan to buy a 900, turbo or non-turbo, haven't decided which yet. But should I avoid automatics? Bought a '68 Volvo 144S new w/automatic. Loved the car except for the transmission. Sluggish is not the best word. Now 34 years later I'm not in such a hurry so an auto. may not be so bad. But on Saabs, aware of their sluggish automatics, is there anything else against the automatics; high repair bills, unreliability, erratic behavior etc.? Thanks for your help.
