I'd be surprised if the SS didn't have better power-to-weight and torque-to-weight ratios than the base S60. The base S60 is a slow pig.
Being a long term Volvo fan at the time, I was excited about the S40 came out--until I saw it and drove it. It fell WAY short of my old 1999 9-3SE in every category, except the interior was a bit more consistent (the old 9-3 has some interior elements that seem very rich, others very cheesy, in an odd mix. The S40's interior was pretty decent all over.)
If I were in your shoes, I'd be a 9-3SS pioneer. Saab/GM will support you in the unlikely event that you have any problems. And you'll have one of the sweetest looking rides in town.
