Isn't that the truth. Beautiful 9-5 there. Looking at where the heated seat switches are I'd think that wouldn't be ideal with the shifter right there. I do miss being able to select different levels of warmth. The 9-3's are either off or on and cycle around on there own.

 

Those wheels are from an Arc. Thats weird, havent seen it before.

 

I bet they have snow tires mounted to them. Wonder if he gets the original set of wheels and tires with the car.

 

Nice Car....I like black Aero...

 

welcome and nice 9-5!

i too am in maine (most of the year), and you do need to start the modding.

weds afternoon, i might be meeting es9000 in augusta if you want to meet up with us.

 

Nice car and welcome

 

Congrats on the new car and welcome!

 

OOooooh, so sexy! Love the car, glad it's a manual.

Too bad mg_td isn't around much anymore, he lives in Yarmouth.

Welcome, and thanks for posting pics without being prompted Beautiful car. I hope it was worth the wait!

 

Nice!

Welcome!

 

Congrats! I love 9-5 Aeros, at least before they ruined the front end. Nothing like owning your dreamcar! (counts pennies toward C6 Z06)

I lurve that front end. Let me guess, 03?

 

congrats and welcome!

Welcome. Great car! 9-5 Aero's FTW

 

Welcome. Great car! 9-5's FTW

fixed that for you.

 

A guy on here by the name of Paintfumes is selling some NICE 17" Ronals with tires off his Aero. I think he is asking $500 and the setup is worth 2-3x that.

edit: found it for ya

the aeros are quite good actually, the linears are terrible, but compared to a viggen the 9-5 aero is great, much stiffer chassis if you ask me.

welcome to the link

 

Glad you found the car, and even gladder you found us!

 

Welcome and nice Aero! Just got a Wagon version m'self. Sooooo nice on the highway....

Just to let you know though, I don't think yours has the ventilated seats... unless the photos of the interior aren't of you car. The switches for the vented seats are right next to seat heater switches, and the pictures show blanks in there instead of switches. Just a head's up...

 

I love the 9-5, we have a lpt with stage 2 and bilstein eibach, no aero bars though.... i swear i feel more confident in that car than my 9-3 with sway bar, strut brace, poly bushings, and shocks/springs... it's a nice ride! I am looking forward to getting a 9-5 aero wagon someday!

 

yeah, my 9-5 with h&r springs, koni strut, and some good tires seems to me like it runs on rails. i really do need the aero sway bars though.

best part about the 9-5's....no torque steer like you 9-3 guys have. muahahaha

 

sweet car and welcome to the board, I have a 2000 aero because I didn't like the looks of the facelifted cars as much, but they are starting to grow on me, especially the silver ones.

 

So yeah, its totally my 1 year anniversary of buying my 9-5 Aero.

I will hit exactly 30,000 miles of driving tomorrow (89k). Thats a lot of good times in my (still) new car .

It also means only 3 more years of car payments... yay!
