I have to assume the same package was offered on LHD cars too. I showed the photo to my wife tonight and she said "Buy it!" If I buy this car Herb Hirsch will win the 9-5 mileage war. My 2000 9-5 has "only" 258,000 miles and I don't forecast it to pass Herb's 280K mark before Spring.
I have the VIN of the convertible so I will check with a local Dealer tomorrow to see if they can get some info for me, primarily why the car isn't available until Spring of 2010 while this special package was only built in the Spring of 2009.
Maybe this car was built to a US customer's spec and the order was cancelled before the car was shipped to the US, leaving it on the docks in Sweden until now. Maybe it is already in the US, but if it is I don't know why the car isn't available now. Maybe the "Date Available" is a mis-print.
Hopefully the local Dealer can shed some light on this.
