9000 questions

I am looking for another Saab as a backup for my C900 and there is an indie shop with a good Saab rep near my work that has 2 9000's for sale. Both are in decent shape, both transmissions were just rebuilt by them. Wondering a couple things, what can/should I expect for a 255,000+ mile 9000 NON-turbo as far as repairs go (I already know about the DI cassettes)? The ABS light came on while I was test-driving.
Also, since this car would primarily be for commuting (mostly highway) fuel economy may be the deciding factor. Was wondering what people's experiences are for upper end of the gas-mileage spectrum. Consensus at work was that it would depend on the gearing of the transmissions.
car 1: 1991 2.0 turbo automatic, 118,000 miles (sedan)
car 2: 1993 2.3 non-turbo 5sp, 255,000 miles (5 door, new clutch too)
thanks for any help
