I believe the 5 speed gearbox in the '91 was an improved one after trouble with pinion problems in the earlier 900s. If it were me buying tomorrow, I would look at the coolant for signs of oil (head gasket change can run $800-1200) and I would check carefully that the car does not pop out of reverse (try it several times)
Having said that, I am happier with my '92 900S than with any car I have ever owned. I have a 1995 900S with only 70k as well, and I just hate the way it drives compared with the good 'ol '92.
These cars last. You'll need a good Saab mechanic to be sure. But by finding this bulletin board you have found perhaps the best group of expertise you'll find. Pay a local indy saab guy / gal a visit and let them check out the Saab.
