Hands down, the Viggen is definitely the way to go. It's lighter, more responsive, unique, and an absolute rocket. On paper they're close, based on power, but they drive a world apart.
Depending on your driving style, I would look for an original '99 Viggen. These Viggens did not come with traction control or other electronic 'helpers' which I find completely irritating in today's sports cars. However, you'll be hard pressed to find an original one, let alone one that hasn't been completely abused or neglected. IMHO, try to find one with (and this seems counterintuitive) maybe higher miles, indicating highway use and not so much the around town, clutch burning miles (as in, "hey, let's rip up and down the block with the ricers").
