Whatever you do stick with a 9-5 over a 9-3ss. When the lease on my 2000 9-5 was up last year I went with a 9-3ss Linear (Linear was all that was available at the time) because the lease deals were so good. Now that I've lived with the car a year it is quite clear that the quality of the 9-3ss is far below that of a 9-5. The GM influence has become dominant -- the 9-3ss is essentially a badge-engineered Malibu. My 9-3ss interior appears to be cheapish plastic, and already has numerous and loud squeeks and rattles. The stereo is absolutley horrible (the rear speakers appear to have been lifted from a clock radio). The 9-5 is a wonderful car. The 9-3ss, unfortunately, seems to indicate that the future of SAAB is merely to market re-badged General Motors products (e.g., the 9-7 TrailBlazer), with all of the substandard quality inherent in GM products. It's SAAD.
