My first experience with the 9-5 wagon was in a Linear lpt. I LOVED it. Quick and agile. But the Polar White Arc with the 6 was what I was interested in because that model seems to have been targeted for long distance highway driving, IMHO... what with all those creature comforts being "standard."
My very first impression driving the 6 was that it got up to speed in a real hurry, but very smoothly and quietly. I like that.
The Arc with the 6 is not quite as agile as the Linear, maybe due to more weight or whatever, but I'm really racking up the Interstate miles on this car and am loving every mile. Solid, quiet, and more than powerful to put distance fast between me and the weird stuff out there.
I've never driven the Aero, but folks are pretty passionate about that model, too. Dif'rent strokes...
I don't think you can lose with any of the models. Just pick the one for the type of driving you do. DO look for one with the upgraded hi-fi system, and I use that word with care. But it is *that* good in the quiet environment of the Arc.
Ah, the tyranny of choice...
