I just got my 2001 9-3 SE last night. I lucked out and a person backed out of a sale (5 speeds are scarce around here). I looked at the 9-5 Aero and was impressed but couldn't justify the $$$. The new 9-3 has the HOT 205 HP engine and I can really tell a difference (I traded in a 98 900SE with 185 hp). I know that I have read that I should only experience a difference at high speeds, but that doesn't seem to be what I am experiencing. I want a 5 sp not an auto. That meant the 200 hp V6 was out. The 9-5 with 185 hp would have to be slower than my old 900 with the same and the incentives are greater on the 2001 9-3's. I'm very happy with it so far (but I only have 25 miles on it as yet). It looks great in the Metalic Steele. Just wish I could get it with the wheels from the 9-3 Aero. So to sum up (I think)to get a close $$ deal and have the HP I would have to had to had given up shifting and a hatchback. After having a 9-3 I wouldn't want to have to resort back to a trunk. Well that's my rationalization (since I already bought the thing).
