I test drove an '02 Volvo 5 sp. wagon three years ago and had about the same impression that you mentioned. It could barely get out of its own way. And I really dislike the flimsy cargo cover in the back. I rented an '04 V70 XC auto (AWD) last summer, I'm not sure what engine was in it. Very nice touring wagon, it really felt glued to the road. But any Saab is a lot more fun to drive :-) There are 5 sp. manual 9-5's out there but depending on where you are, they are not very common. The 2.3 LPT Saab is designed to run on regular gas.
