The SAAB is a generic eurobox, in Europe it's sold as the Vauxhall/Opel vectra and it's a mass market car. 4 seats, 250hp, good but not exceptional handling. But you can load a bunch of friends in and take them out for the night for $35k. To me the SAAB is just another generic box with a bit more power than it needs Much like the Passat v6 and the high end Hondas.
The 350Z is a $30k driving tool, it is light and rigid and almost minimalist bur with all the necessary toys (a/c, heated leather seats and Sirius radio in the last one I had), it sounds wonderful and is fast enough to frighten most people who think they don't mind how fast you drive. Driven close to the limit on a twisty road it's a very satisfying and physical experience. But it's a 2 seater with little immediately available storage and no chance of getting anything more than a couple of bags of golf clubs in the back (if you happen to be a golfer, which I'm not). The rear strut brace cuts the load space in half and the space behind the driver's seat is filled with subwoofer and amp. Did I mention it sounds wonderful? The engine that is. The brakes and handling are great. Oh, back to the point. It's not really an every day car if it's your only transport.
Did you consider the Infiniti M35 coupe? They have stiffened it so that it's a lot nearer 350Z handling and it has four seats but it has the looks and performance of the 350Z for the SAAB's price.
(Motortrend says the 350Z and the M35 will be 350hp for the 2008 model year.)

the v-6 model or the 4 banger for the saab. well the z is more a performance car..and yes the saab is turbo and performance...they offer more room and 4 doors. saab has a lot of GM parts that tend crap out. ill put money that ur z would be in the dealership for repairs less than the saab. but in terms of major mechanical problems both are pretty almost non existant. cept saab engines tend to leak or seap fluids...btw i was a saab tech and currently am a infiniti tech. and the z has more power. what radio stations u listen to? are you from LA. if you are i'll tell u which one ur more inclined too lol
