We have a '97 9k CSE and a '99 9-5. Both are autos, so that's a difference from your situation. I find the seats in the 9k much better, and the engine more refined; the 9-5 sounds coarse under acceleration. The 9k suspension set-up is also more to my taste. It doesn't thump quite so much on bumps as the 9-5. The steering feel on the 9k is more precise. On the other hand the 9-5 auto trans is much smoother than the 9k, and the 9-5 has much less wind noise. On balance, I prefer the 9k by a small margin. All of which proves that different people have different tastes, I guess.
