Stay away from 1999 9-5s. Poor reliability as they age. Can become very expensive to repair. Some 9-5 issues:
Heater box (ACC code 8)
PCV
DIC (can also destroy the catalytic converter)
SID pixels
Pulleys
Debris entering A/C air intakes (1999)
Oil sludge issues
Other stuff I can't remember
A terrific car to have with a warrantee. As Ian says, get a 2002 or later if you must have a 9-5. Hopefully the all new 9-5 that comes out in 2014 will have these bugs worked out.
