...but my '03 Aero Wagon's rear seats do stay a bit wrinkled for a day or so after folding them down. It's not anywhere near as bad as as my 9000 Aero was; because of the side-bolstering on those seats they would not fold flat on their own at all so I'd either have to tie them down or let my cargo hold them in place. The whole rear seat backs would look crushed and wrinkled for days after that, so I know what you're talking about.
I was hoping that the 9-5 would be better, and they are. You can flip up the seat bottoms like in the 9000, but for some reason the seat backs are too tall to fold flat in this configuration unless your front seats are all the way forward. They actually fold quite nicely with the seat bottoms in place (and without removing the headrests) and the cargo area ends up quite flat. The only drawback is you get some wrinkles at the base of the seat back and around the seat belt receptacles. Acceptable compared to the 9000 Aero, but not ideal.
