I think the advice that most people here will give (including myself) is to look for the newest one you can find, preferably a 1997 or 1998. By '97, Saab had worked out all of the little bugs, and added bigger brakes, too. 1998 just added a hydraulic clutch and minor cosmetic changes. In the two years I've had it, my 1997 900 has never given me a single problem. I'd say that regular maintanence is important on these cars, much more so than on a Honda, but if you keep up with the oil changes and the little oddities you'll read about, like the serpentine belt pulleys, you should be in great shape.
