why a 9-3 instead of a 9-5. I think they are more size-comparable. Audi engines don另 have the punch that Saab have (unless you get a S6) I叮 not saying that they are powerless, but I feel they don另 accelerate as much as Saab does. If you plan to drive in wide straight highways that won另 make a difference but if you have twisty, slow trafic roads you will miss that extra punch. Anyway, you will get a great car whatever you choose. BTW last week a friend of mine told me he had been stolen a A6 from the street while he was in a restaurant having lunch. I don另 know if it is a coincidence or there is some kind of "mafia" specialiced in stealing Audi but I don另 think is a good thing that anyone can take away that car that easily. Anyway, obviously I would recomend you a 9-5 (if Aero, even better). Good luck Alvaro (Spain) 9-3 Tid 9-5 Aero "D.
