Funny you mention the headroom. I'm 6-1 and I actually had to raise the seat to feel comfortable and mimick the visibility/position of my classic 900. Maybe one sinks a bit in the Aero seats compared to standard 9-5 seats.
Since I've only had my '04 Aero SW 2 weeks, I can't speak of reliability. So far my only negative observations are:
Lack of two front cupholders (absurd)
No aux jack on the stereo (what decade is it?)
No override to make "sport" mode default (standard mode is minvan doggy)
Toy pretending to be a glovebox (giant lump within makes it a tetris challenge to store anything)
Beyond that, I love it. Oil change is even easier than my C900, although the ride height is too low to squeeze my head under the car!
Good luck.
