If you are not a die-hard C900 you may like it. I like "modern" cars and I love my 9-5. My good friend (a die-hard old-school saab fanatic) calls it a pediatrician-mobile. I ignore him when he does that.
$10k should be plenty to find a decent 9-5. High mileage is not a problem as long as service records are good.
If you liked the hauling capacity of the C900, definitely get the wagon. comparable floor area, more volume (due to it's wagon-ness).
If you prefer the 5-speed, get the 5-speed. No matter how good the auto is (I've driven one, it is good) it's still not you shifting.
A 5-speed wagon Aero is pretty rare, but worth the search. I got a Linear (LPT).
