Compared to what? You said it yourself, 'comparing that to newer cars.'
Back in 2001, Saabs were better than or equal to most brands in crash test survivability. And still are, though almost all manufacturers have improved greatly (ref. Hyundai's more recent crash test results, for example).
I bought a new 2010 9-3 SS last October and the key for me was to have stability control and rear curtain airbags for the kids, something our old '01 9-3 did not have. [In fact, if the 9-5 had those rear bags I would've gone with a used 9-5 wagon instead.]
Anyway, I don't think you should worry but if crash test results on the OG9-3 concern you, perhaps you could trade up to a newer generation 9-3.
