The bi-xenons are great if you do a lot of night driving, well worth the upgrade. The package also includes ('02, not sure if '03 is the same) rain sensing wipers. I thought they were silly, but they really work. I love them. As far as the park assist, well, I'm still trying to figure it out.

The aluminum dash. When I first saw it, I refused to even test drive the car. I thought it was awful. But I got used to it, now I actually like it. It depends on the color combination. I have steel gray with gray leather and it all blends very nicely. I don't think I will ever get tired of it. I like the lightness of it, a nice change from black of the past.

Cosmic blue. The color of your car has to be your personal choice. I have seen a cosmic blue Aero sedan around here, several times. It's a cool color, but honestly, I would get tired of it pretty fast. But it's not my car...

The suspension. From what I read, they put the '99-'01 Aero suspension in the Linear, and made the Aero firmer. I had driven several "older" 9-5's and hated them. Too mushy. The '02 Aero is wonderful. I think you will see a difference in the handling in that it has less rock and roll and a firmer feel. You also get the sport seats, which are awesome.

The best thing to do is test drive one yourself. But we are all sure you will love it :)
