Saabs are not reliable cars. That's a fact jack. Any car model which warrants it's own string of repair shops should tell you something. People don't buy Saabs because of their notorious reliability though, they buy them because they are fun to drive. Saabs are an affordable exotic car, much like a porche or a mazerati. I love my 9000, it just happens to cost easily $1000 a year in maintenance and repairs. I have TWICE broken the shifer because it has seized on me. The TCS is a hassle (Not an issue for you in that Aero), etc. There are lots of little things. In that Aero you are buying a car that will blow the doors of most cars that you see on the road. If you put about $2000 in it, it will flat out dominate all other cars you encounter, literally. It all depends on what you want it for. If you want a reliable car, get a Honda.
