Mobil 1 is excellent oil, and you should be able to go as long as the Saab-recommended drain interval. I've been using AMSOIL for over 25 years now, with yearly oil changes. Have run non-turbos as much as 30,000 miles with filter change at 6 months. Run the turbos 10K or a year.
There is no definition of "synthetic" within the industry. AMSOIL and Mobil 1 use PAO as the primary base stock. Most of the others use a hydrocracked petroleum base stock, which can approach the quality of the PAO but is not the same, particularly in extreme cold. It can still give excellent results.
