Asking some advice of all you Saab experts: today I am picking up my first ever Saab, and have lost whatever car skills I ever had because for the last 9 years I had a Nissan. My purchase is a 97 Saab 9000 CS, 5-speed, 59k miles. Question is: should I buy the used-car warranty (by Preferred) from the dealer ? Basically it costs $1,000 for 36 months/45k miles, $100 deductible, and covers everything, such as lubricated parts, electric motors (locks/windows/seat/wipers), the turbo, heat and a/c, fuel pump, valve covers, engine mounts, steering column, power steering pump, brakes: master cylinder/wheel cylinder/calipers, etc.
I was surprised that when I canvassed a couple of people, they said No, it's only after 100k that significant problems could be expected ? Your opinions would be most welcome ......
