I've found the 9-3 to be a much nicer drive. I had the sports suspension package on my old 900 and the ride was really much too harsh for London roads. Also the trionic7 system on the 2k model delivers amazingly linear acceleration for a turbo, although the old turbo grunt was kind of exciting. The other great thing is the lower gear ratios in 1st and 2nd which makes town driving much more comfortable. All in all quite a refinement.
Its only the new 9-3ss that is missing the hatch, and there is now a wide age range of 9-3 cars that do have hatches. Apparently a 9-3 sports hatch is due out...
