V70r vs. Aero SW Posted by DivrDon [Email] (#1004) [Profile/Gallery] (more from DivrDon) on Wed, 21 Apr 2004 16:20:57 In Reply to: I'm facing the same choice (a bit long), Grendel, Mon, 19 Apr 2004 15:42:09 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I have an '03 Areo SW with auto and I am very happy with it. But I can't put the rear seat backs down and put the driver's seat back far enough to get comfortable. I'M 5'8". I can in a V70r. I have not driven a V70r, just a V70. I think the Saab is quieter and handles better. I also think the Saab will get better milage. Driving the Aero auto in manual mode is not the same as driving a stick. The auto shifts faster in sport mode than in manual, and you can shift a stick faster than the auto in manual. I just leave mine in sport mode. BTW, this is the first auto trans car I have gotten for myself in 40 years.
