1. The car
1.A. Run a VIN check to see if there is any odometer roll back problem. 1.B. Test drive
1.C. Take it to your own mechanic, preferrably an independent Saab shop.
2. The negotiation
2.A. This is a 14 year old Saab, only a Saab lover would consider such a car.
2.B. Saab lovers typically go for turbo 3-door.
2.C. The dealership will have a hard time selling it in the first place, let alone at $7K.
2.D. Offer 90% of what you think it is worth to you, be prepared to add that 10% back as a final settlement.
2.E. Be careful with dealership's high pressure salemanship.
2.F. Don't give them your phone # or address, so that they know it is now or never.
Have fun and good luck.
