Could someone please give me some advice. I found a 2001 Saab 9-3 SE for sale online for $8000 with 71k miles on it. It is leather interior(which i think comes standard in the SE edition), has power everything, moon roof, is a 5-speed manual transmission. Does this seem like the Saab I should get? It blue books for about 8500 good condition but I think I should offer less then $8000. If it runs well and has no mechanical problems what do you think? Please advise.

Yup, sounds like a good deal.. You could always ask a local mechanic to check on theSaab 93 Parts to make sure there are no mechanical problems. Enjoy the car!
Just make sure you have some sort of written agreement with the seller
because they will usually try and get away with telling you "there nothing wrong"
and a few days later something broken

More To Come...
Here's what Ive replaced since buying my 2001 Saab 9-3 convertible a year ago.
Batteries in the key fobs (sounds simple but I had to order them off of the internet
because ***ody sells them in the USA. Radio Shack - no, Circuit City - no, Staples - no.
Battery World - not even at Battery World.)
Headlight control Module
Headlights (these need replacing every 3 - 4 months I found)
Exhaust mounting brackets
AC Compressor ($1500)
Convertible top (stopped going up but still comes down nicely)
Trunk button (stopped working)
SID (Stopped being legible-is it 12:34 or 1 :7U)
Now the engine has started to make a horrible grindign souns, accompanied by stalling,
a rough idle and a check engine light. (I can onyl ***ume the car has decided to self
destruct and is turning itself into a pile of shavings.)
Oh boy... I can walk you through it, but if you blow your engine up don't hold me responsible) Do you have a boost gauge? (not hte one in the cluster, but one that actually reads psi and is accurate)
