The leak looks like it might be your power steering pump. Easy fix. I also see there is a engine cover screw missing or broke off. The inside looks real nice! Did you test drive it?

Yea I drove it but not too far. The rotors are toast. I've never seen anything so rotten.
Also the glovebox is broken. Left lower hinge. Didnt think it to be a big deal
I think I'm gonna take it at this price. It checks alot of the boxes. It also has winter tires on it. Only wish Saab had heated steering wheels like BMW but I won't push my luck

Yeah I'd tell the dealer $800 out the door.

Can't really go wrong for that price. $750 is what you pay for wheels and winter tires and you get a free Saab with it.
Even when you have to put a few $1000 into it to make it reliable for the next few years. Make sure the clutch works good because replacing it can be expensive.

Alright. Will double check the clutch.
I probably should mention I currently own a boxster 550 Spyder but can't use it after October. Previously I've been in several Infiniti G20'S, a few e46 and e90 325xi's and an a4. So going back to FWD is gonna be a stretch. Wanted a turboX but at this price it's hard to resist.
Guess I just didn't wanna buy a money pit. This is just gonna be a commuter to and from work 3miles each way and get winter/snow duty
