Having been a previous Volvo fanatic (4 in a row, and the wife still drives one), I can only speak from personal experience. The S60 has a completely different torque curve, so don't expect that SAAB kick in the back when you floor the pedal at 200RPM. The SAAB also feels a lot more comfortable to me. The only Volvo that can compare against the 9-5 range is the V70 and S70. But I don't know if those models are available where you are.
Stick to what you know. The 9-5 AERO is a beast when required, and a pussy cat in average operating conditions. The S60 seems to drive and feel the same, no matter the occasion.
