I suspect that all '06 9-3 models (2.0T and Aero) have been governor limited to 130mph (plus/minus a couple MPH). The choice of all season tires are the giveaway.
Although 130+ is plenty fast, earlier 9-3s were not restricted and would see 150mph ('04 9-3 Arc, 3/04). They also wore Continental Sport Contact 2 summer tires, not all seasons like current 9-3s. I don't know if that includes the '05 9-3. Maybe someone on the BB could chime in (C&D never tested a '05 9-3 model)...
