A Nissan Sentra will also deliver mid 30 MPG normally, 40-45 on road trips, with a DOHC engine you can milk for respectable acceleration (for the class  ).

Yes, true dat. My Saab 9000 parts weren't any more than any old Buick, and the car had more style and comfort too. That said, if you want easy to repair yourself Saab isn't the way to go - very clever engineering all over those cars but can require special tools to repair.
"Very clever engineering" indeed... Right down to an automatic (if you were dumb like I was in June 1994) that was so complicated, they didn't bother selling parts or writing a manual for fixing it. Hopefully yours was a manual...
