I think $2500 may be a fair price for a 1999 9-3 in good shape but I would always try to get it for a little less. Offer $2000 and try to get it for $2250. I have seen them for much higher.
My Saab mechanic always says if you figure you will have to put $1500 into a used car within the first year you own it and you still think the purchase price + $1500 is do-able for you, then buy it.
No matter what used Saab or other car you buy, you will find something that needs to be done.
at 160,000 miles many things could or should have been replaced but you may find some have not been and you will have to do it>
how are the basics? tires, windshield wipers, brakes, lights, electrical, the mechanicals, etc. I am sure I have seen either on this site a check list for buying a 9-3 or 900 (not the classic). do a google for ""The GM 900 (or NG 900): Second Hand Buyers" and you will find it
