The $5k rebate is in lieu of below market rate of financing through the dealership (ie if paying cash or if you arrange your own financing)and is a reduction of the purchase price.
As a buyer you need to do the math to determine whether your cost savings is greater through the $5k reduction in purchase price or your cost of borrowing is lower than the $5k. There is also a customer loyalty program right now that current owners of Saabs are receiving that further lowers the purchase price by another $1k.
Lastly I would suggest you do some thorough research on invoice costs and use that as a starting point. Never negotiate down from MSRP and with most autos (exception being high demand vehicles) MSRP is a meaningless number.
