I'm going to go check one out in town here in a few minutes. Curious how much the spare ignition box is. Also, the turbocharger system says it's computer controlled. I assume this is simply a computer controlled wastegate other than a variable vane turbo. Am I correct? Any interval for timing chain replacement?
There is a 9-5 Aero in the classifieds for 13,500 w/ 80k on the clock - two of them actually. The one I'd prefer came back with a great carfax but had one odd item - "Vehicle exported from United Arab Emirates
and imported to Brunswick, GA" Any idea if this is normal or if this may be any different than a stock US model 9-5?
Finally, 80k on the clock - should I be worried about this? I plan on having any car we potentially buy fully checked out by a dealership. And while I'm at it, how do these paint jobs and bodies hold up in terms of rust? It seems quite a few are available in snow-prone, salted road states.
Thanks,
Craig Smith
