for the love of the 9-5

I really like my 99' 9-5 wagon. It fits very well. By that, I mean that I connect with the car while driving it and can anticipate how it will react with very high percision. It's luxurious without being soft. It's solid without being stiff. I'm confident in its ability to protect my family in the event of an accident. And I'm fairly confident that it won't leave me stranded. I even like the looks (imola red with the 5-spoke 16" wheels, dark grey interior).
However, I missed my emotional calling when I made the purchase. While swinging by a local, independent, Saab-only used car lot this afternoon my eye was drawn toward a 2000 black on black Gary Fisher wagon. The outward appearance of this car sucked me in like Robert Downey Jr. to cocaine. The aero skirt in combination with those special 17" wheels are sensational. It exemplifies what I like about Saab styling. The next wagon must be a Gary Fisher (or an aero with those wheels).
Just thought I'd share.
