The value of CL can not be beat, the construction is also very solid. The built-in navigation system is just wonderful. On the other hand, when broke-in 9-5 SE is a faster car and handle much better, and more stable in high speed.
I agree with all your other assessments. The V6 engine is louder in acceleration but over all the car is very quiet in cruising.
The short remote range just feel not "natural". It is not a defect but the range is just a bit too short.
Overall 9-5 (both 4-cylinder and V6) is a very balanced car. We like it a lot and hope it delivers long term reliability.
