I find the Viggen to be too much of a sport machine. Sure you can live with it, but the 9-3 chassis was already gives a stiff ride without the Viggen enhancements. For me the 9-5 Aero is newer technology, a very liveable, comfortable ride from a stiffer platform with out the creaks of a hatchback.
Price wise they're about the same, but the Aero has better incentives and a lower lease rate, coupled with a higher residual, which means lower payments for the Aero.
The exclusivity and total performance of a Viggen (and Flight School) is attractive, but overall the Aero is a better day to day car with almost as much performance. The 9-3 Viggen is a carry-over model at the end of it's cycle. The 9-5 is freshly enchanced and ready for the next 5 years.
