I prefer my 01 LPT to my 04 Arc. Much better ride quality and isolation from road noise, more features (real leather on door panels and headrests, umbrella holders, WB radio, backup side lights, painted valve cover, nicer wood, there's more...) and yes my 01 has the ventilated seats.
Yes, the 2002 and up have the stiffer suspension and they are sportier handling but it's still no BMW for heaven's sake... and they ruined the ride... so why bother? If I were to buy another 9-5 I'd buy a low mile 2000-2001 with impeccable service records for very cheap.
