looking at buying a used saab

I am looking at buying a $15-17k used semi-luxury car. I really like the Saab 9-5. Why does the Saab dealer want $5k more for their 9-5 than a local used car lot specializing in nice cars? The used car dealer's has about 15,000 miles more than the one at the dealer.
Also, is the 9-5 reliable enough that it won't nickel and dime me to death, or would I be better off buying a similar aged Infinit I-30, etc? I ask this because I have scanned the bulletin board for the 9-5 and it seems like a lot of little things go wrong. I have a Toyota echo with 77k on it, and it's only been to the shop for brake pads, so that's what I am used to.
Let me say again, I really love the 9-5 that I test drove yesterday.
