but given the relative (for SAAB) high volume of sales of these cars I would think that good performance upgrades are just a matter of time.
As others have mentioned, if this is something you think you'll plan on doing, the Arc and Vector come with an engine that will probably offer a higher top-end of performance for tuning. It has a bigger turbo and other upgraded parts, so you may want to factor that into your decision.
If your wife will truly be the primary driver then I guess it really depends on the trim level you like. You may only notice the extra 35hp in the Arc/Vector at highway passing speeds.
Cheers,
John
