Last night I ended up buying a mint '05 9-5 Arc to replace my ''97 9000 CSE. I really hated to sell the 9K but I needed three shoulder belts in the back now that my 3rd kid in a booster. I want to think all you guys here for the tons of $$$$ you saved me over the 6 years I owned the car. I will still poke over here once in a while.
A quick note: the '05 ARC (220hp) IS faster then my 9000 CSE but feel much more linear in power instead of the rush of the 9000. I have a test road that I use to compare cars. In the 9000 I would consistently get to 72 mph by the sign I used as reference. The Arc (in Sport mode) was exactly 78 mph and 72 without Sport selected. Here's the best part, this is with 87 Octane. It was the sales guy car and the dealership required 87 octane as they paid. After I run this tank low, 93 octane will go in and I'll retry.
