Is it just me or are 9000 sightings just a little bit more common than UFO sightings? Don't see many early 9-5s or 900s either. I was given the impression that the 9-5 may not be extremely reliable but it ought to be durable. My first car a Mazda protege gave me 9 years and my brother drove it another 6 yrs clocked about 250000 km. I live near Toronto so that's 15 winters. In contrast lately I've been getting the feeling that my 2001 lpt 9-5 129000 km may not live to see its tenth birthday. Especially with the paucity of older 9-5 sightings still on the road. You gotta wonder how many 9-5s will live to reach the first decade and beyond. If it wasn't for my good indy: Beacon motors, I wouldn't feel comfortable keeping the car.
