My 2007 9-5 has all of the features you mention. And my wife's 9-5 has only the auto-dimming mirror. My thoughts....
1. Xenon headlights: My 2007 has them, and my wife's 2004 ARC does not. They're nice but I wouldn't view it as a deal killer, although others might disagree. The halogens have gotten quite good.
2. Parking assist feature: My 2007 has it, and my wife's 2004 ARC does not. Cute, but not something I would pay extra for. You can't hear it when the radio is on. I wouldn't view it as a deal killer.
3. Auto-dimming mirror: Great feature; I've been buying and installing them on my Saab's since 1986. Even if the car you buy doesn't have it, this should not be a deal killer. Saab and many aftermarket vendors offer them. Installation is easy. They're very affordable, particularly if you don't go for the compass, outside temperature display and map lights....the 9-5 these features except for the compass which any GPS will provide.
