"Saab makes quality automobiles."

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Wire harness caught fire, car is now dead.

Car needs approx. $3k to be restored.

Seat belt motors never worked.

Engine is overheating - losing coolant.

Cannot regulate cabin heat.

CD player not ejecting properly.

General comments?

I miss driving my Saab. It was a joy to drive, it fit all five of us. I wish I could afford to restore it.

I need help finding a replacement wiring harness, the dealership wants more than the cars market value for a new harness.

I am almost ready to give it up.

Can't you just buy another 900, after all, the one you have is 19 years old!

Wow that old Saab doesn't owe you a thing. 19 years old, I know a lot of 19 year olds who have caused a lot more trouble. Give her a good burial, she's served you well.
