Usually with 50K or so the DI can-will fail soon as well as a good chance the AC compressor will go out. On my 2K viggen they both went out between 52 & 55K miles.
Otherwise there really aren't any trouble areas
Like KB states, the 99's have the weaker pistons in the b235r/viggen family.
The shocks are also on their way out
O yea, be sure to look at the rotors, they unfortunantly have a short life. I replaced mine at 42K & they need it again at 70K however I used agressive pads & took it to a few track days!
When/if you buy the car, DEFINANTLY get the VRK (that is if it's not already on there). This drastically reduces torque steer & makes the car a LOT more fun to drive!! I am also ordering the 6pt brace from genuinesaab, suppose to be a huge improvement there as well!!
