I actually went to the Denver dealer 2 weeks ago. They're no better in person. I was looking at a new 9-3 Aero SC as the 9-5 Wagons are scarce there.
I went at the end of the month, too. They were doing a lot of talking, but the bottom line never changed even though numbers were changing. I never got offered any military discount, nor did I get anything for being loyal.
I took a few test drives, and I think the 9-3 Aero SC with the V-6 kicks butt on the 9-5s there. I don't know what it is, but the new 9-5 doesn't feel any better than my 2000. I think that 260HP is hidden somewhere. Granted, I have a few small modifications, but I was expecting more. I really don't think the new 9-5 was worth the payment. I can do a lot of work on my car for $700 a month.
