If you're mainly doing long trips with the car, you will almost certainly like a Saab more than a Subaru. 2 big differences: 1) Saab seats are more comfortable on a long drive (among the best out there). 2) Saabs have more low end torque and better gearing.
These 2 features are common to all Saabs (at least since the 1970s, perhaps excluding the 92x + 97x which aren't really Saabs anyway). Fuel economy on Saabs is generally better than Subarus as well.
I've done several long trips in rented Subarus, and every time I feel like a cripple after a couple hours in the damn things... decent cars otherwise.
