I agree that the seat could use more travel. I am also 6'5", with most of the height seemingly in my legs. My '95 900 has lots of fore-aft adjustment, but my wife's '01 9-5 sedan does not. When we bought the 9-5 I posted a question about getting more legroom on this board but got no responses.
On a recent trip I was able to get more comfortable by raising the front of the chairbottom cushion, while keeping the rear low, and keeping the seatback failry upright. This allowed my legs to be more suported by the chairbottom, keeping me more comfortable so I could drive in 2-hour segments without becoming too uncomfortable.
Good luck, and enjoy the Aero.
