9-5 wagon vs. BMW 525it wagon

I am seriously considering the purchase of a 1999 9-5 wagon to replace my 1992 525it wagon. The Saab has 140,000 miles and the BMW 161,000. I figure that the newer car will be safer and maybe a bit faster. They both have automatics, which is too bad, but it is hard to find a wagon with a five speed. The EPA mileage numbers are about the same, but it seems to me (based on prior experience with several 9000s that I have owned) that the Saab should give much better mileage. I do most of my own work and have always liked saabs. Would this be a good move?
