Buy a turbo, it will accerlerate well as standard, (faster than a 323) and can be extensively modified to give more power (look at the performance board) If you were able to mod the Saab for lower gear ratio's to give you would not get much more more acceleration, you would get more wheelspin, and massive torque steer a-la-Viggen. It won't handle like a Bimmer, although it's not bad, and it will not put you through a hedge backwards if your heavy footed out of corners.
I have had five BMW's, two 523's, a 323, a 328, and a 2.8 Z3. The Saab is different, just as well made, and lots cheaper. The hatchback Saab is also extremely practical, something my (just ordered) BMW cabrio will not be.
Good luck
