Volvo V70 vs 9-5 wagon

My wife is interested in a used Volvo V70 wagon with a 5 speed manual transmission and the 168HP 2.4L I5 base engine. It is our understanding that the non-turbo 168HP engine takes regular gas.
I'm a very satified Saab owner (2000 9-3SE 5spd) and would like to her to consider the 9-5 wagon. However, she wants a 5 speed manual transmission and wants to use regular gas.
Does the 185HP "light pressure" turbo engine take regular gas? I know that is verboten with my 9-3SE HOT. We are looking to buy used...how "rare" is a 5 speed manual transmission in a 9-5 wagon?
Any experience/thoughts on either car would be welcome!
Thanks,
TNG
