Things were pretty simple when I bought my first Aero 9.5 yrs ago (2002 SW).
The Aero got you more hp, sport suspension, bigger brakes (including ventilated rears), sport seats, lower fascia and a few items std over the Linear.
Over the next few years, the base engine continued to pick up more hp until by '07 (probably sooner), the same engine in all 9-5's.
I think they also offered a sport suspension as a separate option, perhaps even dropped the "Aero" label one year? Sport seats also became an option item.
So I guess the real question you're asking is primarily the suspension difference. The Aero/sport suspension IS going to ride rougher. Do you want sporty or more comfy? The Aero/sport suspension will sit the car a little lower, not sure if that option also includes the different fascia or if that was limited to Aero models.
can't go (completely) wrong any way.
