Personally, I like the 9-5, but when you start to get into this kind of money, there are a number of cars out there that can flip your flop. We purchased a new 9-5 in August and my wife REFUSED to look at any other make of car because of the more than satisfactory way Saab (dealerships and the company) have treated us for the last 25 years. That being said, my friend, who is a master-tech at a Porsche dealer, has driven only Saabs and Volvos for the last 25 years due to the safety factor of the construction of these cars. About 2 years ago, he bought himself a new V70R wagon with a six speed. To my way of thinking, this is not a soccer mom's wagon. Sure, you can haul the kids if you have to, but this thing just plain hauls. It has great seats, dashboard...just very nice ergonomically. It also has great road handling manners. Just tint the windows and you've got a menacing looking soccer mom there.
