bought it with approx 22k in 2000.
Answered a different thread with plenty of maintenance history stuff:
http://www.saabnet.com/tsn/bb/9000/index.html?bID=300553
These are great cars. Easy to work on, durable, and [if maintained] dependable. Might be looking for a manual 96, 97, or 98 CSE or Aero in the next six to eight months. If there are any of you thinking of saying farewell [sure, AFTER I write about the " ... durable ..." etc] to a 9k with NO RUST, miles less than 135k to 150k, drop me a note. Prefer silver or red, for that matter.
