I have a 1998 900 SE Convertible, 2.0 turbo, 5-speed manual.... Look for any exhaust leaks - it seems as if most people I know with '98s are having to replace the rear muffler about now due to rust (mine went last year). Make sure the suspension is up-to-snuff and that the alignment is good (the NG900 suspensions are pretty susceptible). Hav ethe brake pad thickness and rotors checked (the Saab OE ones are pretty soft - but do work great!). Also, check out www.t.com in the NG900 and 9-3 forum...there is a sticky post on owner reviews. There is also a wealth of information on the site (and it is not cencored like the guy that runs Saabnet!!) goonie wrote: > Hi folks, > > I am seriously considering buying a used 1998 SE 900 Turbo (5-speed) > and was wondering if there are any serious issues with this year and > model I should be aware of.
