When I read this I was going to suggest you looked at the Classifieds for comparisons - so I did just that myself, and saw the car you're spotted. It does sound really nice, it's an excellent specification and I don't know the US market - see what other people say - but I can't help thinking the mileage is rather high for this price.
In particular, I'd mention that if the auto transmission hasn't been replaced/rebuilt in living memory, you could be driving a $2,500-plus timebomb. Maybe he would take $4,000 and share the risk with you?
For what it's worth, I paid the equivalent of $7,000 in February for my 1997 Anniversary with 84,000 miles - that's half the miles for a third more. Spec was about the same apart from the electric seats (subsequently Ebayed). This was from an independent Saab specialist, with a year's warranty, and was probably too expensive but I really liked the car (still do).
Some of the prices in the Classifieds seem somewhat ambitious but I guess it's easier to come down than to go up...
