I have a 99 9-3SE with 30k miles. My brother in law has the S60 with about 20k miles.
No problems yet out of either car save for my wife pouring a soda into the electric window switch box.
If you're going to consider a Saab for a high-mileage purpose, I'd make sure you got the arm rest thrown in.
If you go for the S60, DO NOT GET the base 2.4L engine. Its only 164 horses and positively lethargic. You'll need the Turbo or T-5 engine. Figure that into your budget.
I think the seats in the S60 are a little better but as everybody here will tell you, when you have the sunroof open on a nice spring day. You head up a twisty 2-lane road and put the tranny in sport mode, there is nothing like a Saab.
I still grin EVERY time I turn the key to start mine.
