However, after those improvements more than looks changed. Safety, for example. I think there is noticeable difference between 900 and 9-3 on the road. But on the other hand, I¥ve never had a 900 series (Exception: 1987 900i sedan), so this will give some room for debate. > I think you're confusing the 9000 and 9-5......... About the key placement You are right. Other differences between 9000 and 9-3, however, are obvious. The 9000 series floorpan is similar to Fiat Tempra, Lancia (was it Thema..?) and, I believe, that on the Alfa 164. Thank You for Your comments and fixed facts. Jussi Arvio Finland
