I can't disagree with John about the snow issue, I live in the south.
But I do have to disagree about the auto vs. manual trans question. The auto is much more fun to drive in the Aero and the 4-speed is a fine transmission. Unfortunately, the manual transmission in the 9-5 has long throws and slower throttle response than the automatic. And that's in normal mode. The automatic in "Sport" mode has even quicker throttle response. That's one of the advantages of an electronic throttle, it can be programmed differently for different conditions. It's too bad Saab hasn't programmed to the manual to be quicker or offered a "Sport" mode for the manual.
