We traded in a 2000 S70 (which we bought new) on a 2002 9-5 (also new), which we still have. I have nothing but good things to say about the Volvo, but in comparison, the Saab is faster, handles better, rides better, has WAY better seats, and gets 20-25% better highway mpg. During the warranty period--which is all I can compare--the Volvo had more problems as well, though neither car was particularly problematic. The Saab dealer shops we've dealt with have always fixed things correctly on the first try, while our Volvo dealer shop seemed a little clueless. It's easier to find an independent Volvo shop.
