I really like it. I had a hard time choosing between it and the 9-5 wagon. The only 9-5 wagon that had a sporty suspension was the Aero and was too much $$.

What I like about the Saab that the Saturn doesn't have;

1) Seat memory
2) Knowing the outside temp (very useful in icy NE winters)
3) Automatic climate control
4) Snaab Appeal :)
5) Classier interior
6) Night panel (great for driving in bad weather)
7) Rear fog light (same reason + tailgaters)
8) Turbo rush (The Saturn is almost as fast 7.6sec 0-60 but it's more linear)
9) Affordable accessories from the dealer. (Thule cheaper from Saab than Saturn)

What I like about the Saturn better;

1) Better handling in stock form (if you replace those awful Firestone Affinities)
2) Polymer panels (Our 94 Saturn looked great until we traded it for LW2)
3) Service (Their service is much better)
4) More room. (This is really a 9-3SE vs Saturn wagon difference)
5) Grunty V6 with no turbo lag (even though it's not really an issue)
6) Fewer problems (The cars are more simple so there's less to break)
7) Nicer ride. It just handles the road irregularities better.

Point? It's good to have variety.
