Comparison: '99 9-3SE HOT vs '02 9-5 Linear

I'm trying to convince a buddy of mine that the lease deal offered on the 9-5 can't be beat (If you put 3K down, pay 16K over 48 months and buy at the end for 13K You've spent 32K on a 37K car over 4 years -- tought to beat). So we test drove a 9-5 Linear automatic yesterday and the difference between my '99 9-3 and the '02 9-5 were amazing. I know they are supposed to be different cars, but my 9-3 should be as solid as the 9-5 and should not have more body role than the 9-5. Basically the 9-5 felt screwed together better by a factor of 10. The 9-5 is on a much better platform and had a much better suspension geometry...didn't even have any torque steer. If the new 9-3 moves in this direction and is even slightly tighter and better than the 9-5 (which is several years older), it will be a huge hit.
