Driven it -- with the exception that you can't get it with a manual trans,
it's awesome. Read R&T's recent review -- regarding the engine, the article
is right on the mark (PS -- 9-5 wins test if you ignore styling scores; do
the math and you'll see for yourself). Beats 5-series, A6, GS300, etc...
Passing power is thrilling. Besides, 9-5 Aero will appear in late 1999; it'll
have a 230hp turbo four with manual and auto available.
