Snowmobile already touched on the "most likely" big ticket item, sagging rear suspension. You could also get your head underneath and see if the rear struts are leaking fluid. I had to replace both on my 2002 Aero SW. Other "likely" things pretty minor (e.g., coolant bypass valve).
I guess I could be considered a 9-5 "pro", as I've bought 6 of them, but I'm at a little bit of a loss finding problem areas for you to check.
Per the owner's manual, I see where an ACC self-calibration can be performed by pressing "AUTO" and Recirc buttons at the same time, with the engine running. The manual doesn't mention anything about displayed codes, so I don't know if the '07 works the same as the older interface. I would definitely recommend trying that on an older model being considered for purchase.
good luck

2005 9-5 Arc
p.s.
you asked: "what to expect" with a 9-5 Aero SW/SC?
arguably the best used car value available (at least I'll gladly argue it)
