1) Vibration - Motor mount?
2) Rear rotors should go 80K+ -- I will be shocked if that at some point you don't have to replace the struts. Good time to upgrade.
3) Rims - common - either they were badly bent/scratched or fading (covered under warranty).
4) Extended Warranty - Is this the Saab warranty (aka CPO)? If so probably worth it -- I think Mike Lynch said dealer cost is $1250 for that.
5) Mileage is more important than age with the Viggen in my opinion. 52K is high for an 01, but probably mostly highway miles. New tires and rims are nice - worth $1K + the warranty I would say that $20K or a little over is fair and under $20K is a hell of a deal. If the car could be classified as "mint" condition $21K might be more accurate.
Good luck. Sounds like a nice car.
