Since I get bored often, I go to saabusa.com and build my dream Saabs online, and a Viggen is definitely not $10,000 more than an SE. I believe you can get into an SE for about $33k, and a Viggen with all the options (I think there's only metallic paint and heated seats) comes in at about $38.5. With the incentives on the SE's, maybe it is closer to a $10k difference, but that's an unfair comparison. Somebody recently asked how much it would cost to put Viggen body panels on an SE or a 9-3 base, and it was something ridiculous like 5 or 6 grand after painting and installation. Add to that new intercooler, suspension, wheels, tires, exhaust, not to mention the engine internals, and its surprising a Viggen can be had for as little as $38k. If you don't want to drop so much on a new Viggen, there are (or were at least) some beaaaaautiful vintage lightning blue or Monte Carlo Yellow last century Viggens on the classifieds board.
