If you want a convertible, look for a 1998. I believe Saab switched to a new hydraulic top mechanism (or as my mechanic called it - the Mercedes top) in 1998, eliminating most, if not all of the problems with earlier ones.
Two common problem areas are: DI cassette (fail in 60-100k miles) and idler pulleys (explode 60-100k miles.) You can avoid major cost and inconvenience by proactive maintenance and by responding to changes in performance or engine sound.
