I am glad to hear the Volvo's getting some love on here...we have an older V70 T-5 and love it.
I would recommend a test drive of a V70 T-5 or V70R (if $$ is no object) (they are wagons but you can get the same car in sedans too). Also check out the V50 T-5 All Wheel Drive.
SAAB's haven't been the same since they were bought by GM, but they seem to be improving.
