If you're considering new, I'd go for the 9.5. The chassis is better than the old 9.3 and the 2.3 with more HP than the thirsty new 9.3 Aero V-6 (why they ever used that crappy engine I'll never understand) still has many tuner mods available for some good fun. I'd avoid the new 9.3 despite it having a very good chassis...almost the same size as the 9.5 yet less useable interior space and very little tuning bits available. Perhaps taht will change with time?
Used....a 9000 Aero or a Viggen (which you already have but in CV form and adding lots more HP may not be advisable due to the flexy chassis)...in coupe form as it is most rigid. Lots of tuner bits available. The 9000 Aero is a car I had wished I'd owned between my '86 SPG and my '02 Viggen. As much as I loved the C900, the trannies were no good.
