Volvo vs. Saab 850

Before I bought my 855, I asked my mechanic for his recommendations. He said don't buy another Saab (I had owned a '91 900). I loved my Saab it was great fun to drive, looked keen, and gave me no problems. I was a lucky one. The newer ones are terrible maintenance nightmares. It came down to the Audi 90 or the 850. I got the 850 because it felt great to drive and finding a 5spd isn't easy. I'm happy so far. I would not buy a 900 or a 9000. I've driven both and the quality is not up to the Volvo standards.
