So Hammer, a lot of what you say is subjective. But factually the Saab
9-5 is 2 inches longer and .4 inches narrower than a BMW 530i. Depending on the version of Saab and transmission in both the weights are almost identical. The Saab has more head room, leg room, shoulder room , cargo and passenger volume. The BMW is a great car, I do not mean to berate it but I believe the Saab is actually more luxurious. I would say the BMW would probably out perform the Saab but not by a big margin. That's based on my experience with an Arc. That may not be true with an Aero. Either way they are not two completely different cars. They are in the same league.
