The 9-5 is definately a better car than the newer 9-3 but I'd rate the older 9-3 as about the same reliability-wise. It was the last few years of the model and by '98 they had all of the bugs worked out of it. You do get a lot more bang for the buck with the 9-3--the 9-5 is better looking, more popular and as a consequence you pay more for them. 115K isn't anything to worry about in terms of miles if the price is right. If you're going to be making payments, then yes, that is too many miles. You don't want to be making payments and repairs too. Personallly I'd wouldn't make payments on anything with more than 50K.
