I have a 99 9-5 SE with the 4 and the auto and it has plenty of get up a go in sport mode. It has 200 ft-lbs of torque with the LPT which is comparable to the V-6. Mine has 101K (miles) and I have yet to have any problems other than normal stuff like a water pump at 99K. If you change your oil every 5K with synthetic you won't have problems. The 4Cyl will go 200-250K with proper maintenaince, I'd be surprised to see the 6cyl make it to 125.
The 4 Cyl is the way to go
