Well, in my experience with new gen cars, the 9-5s seem to handle better and have a little more creature comfort than the Viggen, but the Viggen is hands down faster in a straight line than the Aero. I think the poorer handling characteristics in the Viggen have something to do with the hatchback, but I'm not sure. Also, the 9-5s definitely have an overall higher maintenence, but the engines require the same TLC as a Viggen (change oil religiously every 3k miles, nothing lower than 91 put in the gas tank, and get the 30k mile services on time, regardless of modification, this includes head retourqing). But ask around, since someone else might have an entirely different experience and or opinion with these cars.
