Agree -- they're two entirely different vehicles. Get the Saab. FYI, the Xterra gets only 2 stars out of 5 in rollover resistance per the NHTSA website. Not exactly safe. Not to mention lousy mileage. Edmunds says the vehicle will cost around 49 cents/mile to drive which is probably a bit less than the 9-3SS. They also note, however, that the Xterra has no traction control, no stability control, and no side airbags. And their bumper test rated poor. What's the point of buying something like that these days? If you must buy a small SUV go for the Ford Escape...
