Spares are getting more and more rare...
It's a lot of weight to carry around if it's not going to get used. All cars come with TPMS (Tire Pressure monitoring), so you should be able to see a problem early.
Also, it would be hard to get a standard (for these cars...)spare in there, and still have the same trunk space available to you. The original 9-5 has more space available, but still can't fit a standard spare without encroaching on the trunk space... (it's a tire/wheel width vs well depth problem...)
