I have one of those 94 900s V6 5spd's, and i love it. yes, many of the people here do not have faith in the V6, and some previous V6 owners have had catastrophic problems. I think the weak point with the engine is the timing belt and its tensioner pulley, and something about the belt causing the cam to break all the valves and pretty much destroying the engine. on the other hand there are a lot of v6ers out there with over 100k miles who love their car. the trick is to follow maintainance schedule and do timing replacement every 30k. do a search for V6 and you can find other peoples stories. as far as the 9-5 goes, I dont know, but i would hope that they have a new design for the timing belt apparatus. perhaps the 9-5 bb may help.
