I was struck by the similarities to my story, too. I sold my '96 Jetta GLX last summer and bought a 2003 Aero wagon. I originally planned to get a Mazda 6s, but I wanted the wagon and they still don't have it available (they've been saying "coming soon" for a year now). I liked the Jetta quite a lot, although my wife thought we spent a lot on repairs compared to her Civic. But the Jetta was getting pretty cramped on family vacations with two kids and a dog.
I've been extremely happy with my Saab. Nevertheless, I still admire the Mazda when I see one on the street and I frequently wonder whether it would have given me everything I wanted (fun-to-drive, good-looking and enough room) for significantly less money than the Saab (and I got a great deal on the Saab). But I remind myself that the Aero is bigger, faster and seems so solid. Plus the kids get a rear-seat warmer for our Wisconsin winters.
