Have a '06 Aero SC myself with a 6-spd manual. The 6 cyl. is a Holden engine (GM Australia) and won an award back when it was introduced. It's very smooth, has plenty of pull, and isn't too bad on gas.
Some known issues on the 6 cyl:
Coolant expansion tank. These often start leaking (as in my case) or let up their ghost entirely. Lots of posts on this board dealing with this failure. Mine was replaced at 10,000 miles or so (I'm only at 14K now after three years).
Dash button peeling. The push-button dash nobs -- radio, HVAC and the like -- can peal over time. Another known issue.
Back seat window trim. The upper portion of the interior window trim can warp. Mine has been "fixed" several times by the dealer, but I don't see a difference.
OEM Conti tires. These, in my mind, aren't very good tires. I'll have to replace them after this season. It's likely yours have been replaced on a CPO.
Other than some rattles here and there, that's about it for my issues. Still love mine after three years.
Good luck!
