Hi everyone ~ Looking to replace my wife's 99 Ford with a 2001 9-5 Se with the 3.0 v6. Dealer asking $7500. Good price? Good car? Vehicle appears to be in good shape. What needs to be replaced at 77k? I have read about SID issues and the DI cassette issues. Are there other major issues that I can expect to deal with? Is oil sludge a problem with the v6 as well? And lastly, is the 9-5 a good, reliable vehicle? It is very good looking and the heated seats, leather and moonroof are nice, but I don't want a pretty lemon! Thoughts are appreciated. Thanks, Bluesman
