2004's can be a little glitchy, but a glitchy 04 may still be on a par with an OG9-3 of any year. I'd get the one I liked best. Some folks don't find the newer seats to be as comfy. Some folks love the more classic wood interior
Newer equal stronger, with dual force airbags, ESP and roll bars, yes the new 9-3SS design is safer, "much safer", I dunno', but safer yes. ESP reduces single vehicle crashes dramatically. New one just got the best vert ratings of all.
The 9-3SS calls for reduced maintenance vs the OG9-3, but whether that's a function of actually needing less maintenance or just a relaxed schedule is a good question. Theoretically an 04 was a 15k full synthetic oil change interval, but that has since been revised down to 10k for later years of the 9-3SS.
