I made the transition about 1 1/2 years ago. Picked up an 04 Linear SW, 39K, immaculate, for $13,800, still had 9 months left on the warr. If you use the car for hauling, the sedan will be frustrating after having the hatchback on the 9000. If not, the sedans are usually cheaper.
Never had the V6, but some say it's a 150K engine.
Most say don't buy a 99. If you get a 4 cyl, have the oil pressure checked. That's the quickest way to verify sludge problems. The manual-trans models seem to have less sludge issues. For more info, go to huck Andrew site and read his articles from Nines. Chuck seems to be the expert on this
