the folowing is personal opinion...
It is probably a very nice car, but 160k and an S leads me to expect 4-5k instead of 6 for a pristine example that needs nothing. I just sold my '92 900T 5sp with 90kmi for 5100. It needed nothing, was a very nice example and everything worked. I wanted 6 but did not find a buyer when I needed to at that price. It is supply and demand in the used car business. Best bet is to find a buyer that got burned by a poorly serviced or needy example. Then they know the value of 'well maintained'. There is not a LOT of demand for C900 CVs and there is a LOT of supply if the classifieds here, ebay, autotrader and cars.com are any indication. The right buyer may show up. Make a web page and show more pictures, list it on Autotrader as well and you may find a local buyer that does not look on Saabnet or in the paper. There are more and more unconverted that are gravitating to the old body style Saabs, but there are a lot of convertibles out there. On the other hand, there is quite a bit of demand for 3dr turbo 5sp cars and very little supply, so those prices rival what a CV used to fetch (comparatively). IMO, $0.02, yada yada...
