I recently bought a 1999 9-5 SE V6 and am very happy with it. If I had my choice, though, I probably would have opted for a 4-cyl 9-5. Frankly, I believe the acceleration is about the same but the 4-cyl turbo is actually a bit quieter than the 6 and I think the lower weight of the engine gives the car both a more nimble feel and a better (smoother) ride.
I got the SE V6 because I was in a rush to get a car (long story) and it was in terrific shape for a really fair price. I certainly have no regrets, but if I had more time to search, I would have waited for a 4.
I've been amazed by the fuel economy I've been getting with the car. I have about 45k miles on it and the trip computer indicates that I'm getting 27.5-28 mpg during my daily commute. Not bad for such a large car given my personal driving style!
