Saab 9-3?

I'm thinking about picking really nice Saab 9.3 2.0T. Any feedback on these from previous owners? Anything I should look for or be aware of?

I have a 2003. They really are awesome cars. The 2.0 turbo is the perfect balance between performance and fuel economy. Mine is a manual transmission car. Go to the Saab Central web site. Lots of good info there. Electrical items tend to be the issue on these cars. The big one is that they are fussy with the battery. They need a good battery. Car is easy to work on. I have replace the front struts, tie rod ends , front and rear springs ( lowered) rear shocks , brakes, etc....Mine has 130K miles on it. Many places to get parts....Rock Auto...local parts places.
