There was a time that I used to go to the local Saab / Volvo dealer and drive similarly priced models before I would end up buying a Saab. Last October when I bought my last car, I nearly did the same thing, but as I was getting in the S80 for a test drive I stopped and realized that I was wasting my time. The Saab is a drivers car, the Volvo is not. I liken it to the BMW / Mercedes comparison - performance edge over luxury edge. If you weren't happen with the performance in an Audi, you'll never be happy with the floaty handling and lack of zip in a Volvo.
The nail in the coffin was that I asked the Volvo salesman what he drove, and he pointed me to his Saab 9-3.
