I traded an allroad for my 02 aero sedan. I liked the audi 2.7T engine, but I had significant problems with tranny lag (serious issue on the tiptronic - no issues with the 6 speed). Audi service was poor as well. Other than that the Audi is a nice car and probably has a bit better overall fit and finish with the exception of the seats where the aero stands out.
I also looked at a 540i 6 speed when I was shopping for the aero. I liked the BMW, but at the end of the day I felt the BMW was too popular for my tastes. I also owned BMWs in the past and found the service folks to be arrogant and ready to take you for some cash whenever they could.
That said the 02 aero is my second Saab (other Saab was a 2000 Viggen). The aero offered up the same thrills behind the wheel for far less money. I also like a car that has some character and the aero certianly has plenty. The Saab dealer in town is also excellent and treats me very well. I plan on keeping the aero for quite a while.
