I had some vibration at about 70mph on my 03 Aero SW after getting new tires. It cleared up after I got new tires again. I don’t think anyone knows for sure, but it seems the 9-5 is sensitive to both hub/wheel corrosion and improper tire conditions such as balance, flat spots, etc. Even improper torque could upset things. Off a dealer lot I would think flat spotting of the tires would be the most probable cause.
What year, sub-model, and body style are you looking at? I recall a discussion trying to link this symptom to a predominate subset of vehicles.
