My daily driver is a 2002 9-5 Aero SW, 5-sp. My wife drives our 2002 9-3SE 5-dr/5-sp. I'm always happy to drive the 9-3 (especially for the better mileage and easier parking), but the difference in cabin room is evident. The Aero seats cannot be beat for comfort.
Highway smoothness is a tad better in the Aero, but offset by the stiffer suspension.
I too am 6'2" and find either car a great commuter car, even in traffic, but then again, I've been driving manual trannies for about 25 years.
FWIF - My commute is about 60 miles per day, mostly highway at, ahem, elevated speeds.
