The SE has a smoother ride but it certainly doesn't handle as well as the Viggen. I ended up putting the Viggen springs in my SE with no problems. It's still comfortable but sporty.
I found huge differences in steering feel, etc after applying Abbott Racing's Viggen Rescue Pack (a collection of braces, bushings, etc. Big $$)
I also found that the Koni dampers really smooth out the ride while improving handling. ($550 but worth it). (Uprating the rear swaybar on the SE is great, easy and affordable too).
If you get the Viggen, you'll probably be buying exactly what you're looking for. The SE may be too squishy for you. It was for me but I just fell in love with the car. 1999 9-3SE with 60K happy miles. If I could do it again, I would have just gotten the Viggen.
Best of luck Josh,
Bill
