It you live where it snows the Saab has a real advantage. For a brief time I owned two 91 Saabs (turbo and nonturbo) and two BMW 3 series (91 325 and 95 318is). The BMWs were fun to drive but were no comparison to the 9000s. The 9000 compares much better with the 5 series in terms of substance. I think the thing I really like about Saabs is the well roundedness. You can haul ass down a curvy road with cars like BMWs and then load them up with Kayaks and camping gear or slog through mud and snow like a sport-ute. If you live in the sun belt and just like sporty handling then the BMW has the edge. I do prefer the image of Saabs verses BMWs. People definately go out of their way to give you shit when you drive a BMW--switching back and forth showed me it wasn't just my imagination. BMWs will get you a lot of unwanted attention, Saabs are much more stealthy.
