Is certified pre-owned warranty worth extra $$$?

I'm considering purchasing a '99 9-3SE 5-door manual trans. 37K miles. I can either get the car for just under $16K without SAAB certified pre-owned or get it with the warranty for $2K more.
Dealer has done the 100 and some odd point pre certification inspection and given attention where needed.
My question is.....Is the cert. pre-owned worth the extra?
I've owned 3 SAAB's and currently have 2 (all classic 900's) so I'm very familiar with them but not so much with the newer SAAB's. The day has come where we need 1 newer car. I'd be trading my '90 900. Our pristine '94T-conv. will become mine and the fiancee' will drive the 9-3 most of the time.
Anyway......any 9-3 owners have opinions on the cert. pre-owned. I'm leaning towards just paying the extra for the peace of mind but.....thought I would ask.
Thanks in advance,
Todd
