Cannot speak to your other two choices,as I am a ten year Saab driver after owning a bunch of just about everything else on wheels,and admit to now being biased,but,have had a 2002 Aero for all of five days now, and suggest you get your body down to your local dealer and grab one while you can(if you can).Thyis is such a standout car as far as ride, handling, style, economy, comfort, build quality, and value that I have no interest in trying anything else. I cannot describe how effortless the aceleration is, even though you can buy a car that will beat it at the drag strip. You might find a few more techno gadgets on Japanese cars,but your Saab will be rust free long after a Lexus has turned to iron oxide. Nobody can beat the finish on this car,even MB and BMW. The cosmetic detailing is unmatched.To compare,rub your finger along the door window chrome trim strip on an Audi A-6. Bring along a band aid though, as you will need it.
I guess you get the point. The Aero is a car you will not only like driving today,but will get better as it ages. By the way, it is reasonable to have a Saab engine take a good five thousand miles to really break in, after which you will be even more amazed at how good it is. Low insurance rates due to superior theft resistance,the list goes on and on.
I have owned several BMW's, and only ridden in the TL,but cannot compare ownership.I am solidly in the Aero's corner, and encourage you to drive one. As a value, they usually will proce out more than the acura,but possibly less than the 330i,depending on options on the BMW. Fully loaded, my guess is that the BMW will be more $$.
Good luck
