'01 9-5 SE Wagon to '04 9-5 Arc or Aero Wagon?

I'm considering getting into my 4th saab (i.e. 900 turbo, 9-3 and most recent 9-5 SE wagon). I've enjoyed the last three years in the 9-5 SE, but the lease is up. The V6 off the line, especially in sport is terrific. My test drive of the Arc sedan (no wagons on the lot) was not impressive. The 4 seemed to be straining the entire time and the shifting was not smooth. The Aero was better, but still didn't satisfy my V6 experience.I think the Arc is out,but now I need to deal with the tire/wheel issue (i.e. snow). An additional $800 or so?
I'm a father of three and don't drive too aggressively any more, but do like power going in and out of traffic.
Has any saab enthusiast made one of these transitions? Do you have any thoughts? Is it time to move on?
Thank you for your feedback.
