Check your cable before just replacing it. The cables vary a bit from model year to model year, and the exact part new might be $$$. Check all connections, since a noticeable change like you describe could be a corroded or loosening connection - that would be way cheaper to fix.
AND a 9-5 owner recently remarked how a disassembly, cleaning, and re-greasing made their starter turn the engine over faster than at any time since they owned the car. I think that person especially cleaned the solenoid and its contacts, which would deliver more current to the motor.
Congrats on the miles you have - keep it going !
