Answer
The saab is cheaper than the volvo but then you gets what you pays for, as in the volvo has a folding metal roof that transforms it from a summer car to an all-weather car. i would personally much recommend the volvo even without the roof as the saab rides on the same platform as the chevrolet malibu and vauxhall/opel vectra, two of the stodgiest handling cars you can buy, and it shows. the volvo is also newer and much less likely to be replaced soon, and has a nav system that works unlike the saab. the only thing the saab has going for it is the styling, and thats a matter of personal preference.
