I think the aero is the better choice, given it is less expensive. The drivetrains are identical but the 9-5 has the better chassis and will give you a more controlled ride and handling, less torque steer.
However, the best option is keep your 2003 and spice it up a bit instead of paying a dealers profit margin to swap to either of these cars, both of which are now out of warranty as well. Some 17in wheels&nice tires, the 200hp chip (or more if you go third party - see site sponsors) and a remus exhaust, plus viggen front rotors (you will need the 9-5 aero caliper mounts, but the caliper itself is the same, and the rotor just bolts on) are what I'd recommend.
