They are good cars for the money, and I like their styling. And I think the engine in the Passat is pretty good (I'm not the one who said it was a dog), but my experience is that it just doesn't compare with a Saab.
To me, the main difference is that a Saab will still have a lot of life in the 70+ range. I don't get the same feel with the Passat. The Passat also isn't nearly as smooth and is much louder when pushed than any Saab I've driven (the one I've got has tiptronic, so I'm able to keep the revs up). If your Saab isn't comparing well to the Passat, then I do suspect it isn't performing as well as it should. I've got a C900t that the Passat could probably outrun, but I know it's a sick puppy.
