Another 'vs.'--'96 850 Turbo or '98 S70 T-5? S70

Subject says it all--I'm trying to decide what to replace my '94 Turbo sedan with. I haven't gotten to drive the T-5 yet but am curious as to how it compares, ride-wise and performance-wise (a little extra torque and hp), and also about interior quality of the S70.

The '96 850 is the "platinum" edition and has TRACS among the options--I don't know if the S70 does, or if it's even important (my '94 didn't have it but could have used a little bad-weather help).

The S70 has 18K more miles and the asking price is $2K more.

Opinions? Year-specific problems/info? Thanks in advance!
