Also considering a lease and the stick/auto decsion

I'm quite happy with the 4spd auto in my 9-5, is the tranny the same in the 9-3? I think it mates well with the LPT 2.3 in the 9-5.
I wonder, for those who have driven the current US 2.0 205 HP version 9-3, does the reduced torque in the auto have a substantial effect? I'm guessing that either the 9-3 auto is different than the 9-5's, and can't take as much torque, or that the 2.0 doesn't meet emissions regs with full torque on the auto...
The car, if we do the lease, will be a part -time stop and go commuting car, so an auto would be nice, if the effect isn't overwhelming.
Thanks for any opinions ...
Pat
