Re: Thinking of making the switch to Volvo from Saab... ALL

Without a doubt, the Saab wagon is undoubtedly a nice car, Saab did everything they could to build a wagon that could antagonize Volvo's wagons. But t/d that car and then go t/d a V70 2.4T or (even better) a V70 T5, no comparison to the handling around curves, to nose diving when you suddenly hit the brakes to the overall ride (not mentioning acceleration). Lastly, but equally important, that blind spot caused by the HUGE "D" pillar in the 9-5.
