'97 900SE - should I keep it?

I have a 5dr '97 900SE Turbo w/ 152K miles. It's in great condition. My brother is replacing his '00 Audi A4 w/ 83K, which he is offering to me for free. Was wondering what the forum thinks?
I've only had SAAB Mastertechs do work on my car, except for oil/tire changes.
Things I've added (Stage 3):
-JT Sports exhaust system 3" (all from GenuineSaab.com)
-Talifero Intermediate Pipe 3"
-3" Talifero Downpipe
-Nordic Trionic T5 ECU Chip from GenuineSaab.com (185hp to 225hp)
-Talifero Rear Anti-roll Bar
-Talifero Steering Rack Brace and Clamp Kit
-K&N Sport Air filter (which I maintain every half year)
-HID Xenon Phillips lights (4100 K) with Polarion balast (from XenonFactory.com)
-Talifero 2point Sub-frame Brace
Regular maintenance:
-Clutch replacement at around ~110K
-Koni shocks
-ACC servo
-Changed oil every 3000-3500K
-Replaced fuel injection system at around ~98K
-Changed Spark plugs
It's a great car, but I don't need two vehicles. I live in Los Angeles, and frankly don't have room for both-otherwise, I would keep both. I considered selling my brother's Audi, but it holds a salvage title where I have a clean title.
Best,
Truman
