Need Advice--Buying 900SE Convertible

Hey everyone,
I have wanted a Saab convertible my whole life and came across one at dealership that I will most likely buy. It is a '97 SE V6, Green w/tan leather and all the options except CD--which I guess can be added via a Clarion unit in the trunk. Car has 74K miles and dealer wants $8,500. I plan to offer $7,000 and see what happens. I talked to the former owner who told me there are 2 problems--drivers side heated seat and power mirror don't work. So I will demand the dealership fix these issues first. Other than that, the former owner (traded for an '04 Passat) says the car was very dependable and he would drive it anywhere worry-free and most of the miles are highway.
I am looking for some reassurance I guess. Car will be strictly for fun in the summer on weekends and some nice days. Will be stored in the winter. Maybe a few trips to the nearby Colorado mountains and that's it. I am not asking for perfection from an 8 year old Saab but am I asking for trouble?
Thanks
Mike
