Uh, Phred-the only thing the 9-5 carried over from the 9000 was the engines. The 170hp LPT engine carried over from the CS (and was later upgraded to 185 in '01). The V6 in the Arc was short lived in the 9000 CSE, and wasn't even turbo'ed in the 9000. The Aero engine in the 9000 had similar output in the '00 9-5 Aero (225hp), but had its internals upgraded and added another 5hp.
There may be some interior styling similarities from the 9000 to the 9-5, but it ends there. It's all modern in the 9-5.
They say "familiarity breeds contempt"-my guess is that you may be due for a change. ;-)
