I've had 4 900s, a few 9000's and currently own two 9-5's.
For the 9-5, only the 4 cylinder. If you're looking at the linear model, the turbo seals are suspect at 100k. The Mitsubishi turbos seem to last the life of the car.
Beware extremely low mileage pre-04 models, as these seemed the most likely to sludge.
If you're looking at the early models, check to see if the PVC update has been done.
The wagon will keep you happier if you use your hatch for hauling large items.
The 9-5 will feel a lot slower than the old 900, but will actually be faster.
