I have a 2001.5 1.8T 5-speed passat wagon and a 2002 9-5 linear wagon. The 9-5 is an automatic and definitely has some pep. It handles better at high speeds and is a better long trip car due to the nicer seats and quieter cabin, better gas mileage and bigger gas tank. That being said the saab has some annoying traits. The seats don't fold down as easily on the passat, and it seems the front seats have to be moved very far forward to get the the rear seats down. The 6.5" rims make the tires look flat and the knock on wheel weights are pretty low tech looking. No auto-up windows with pinch protection like on the passat, and about a 2-foot remote range for the keyless entry.
