Is it possible the 10th digit is not a 5 but an S ?? This digit denotes year I think S=1995. The 7th digit 8 denotes 4 speed automatic tranny.
4th digit C = Saab 9000
YS3 just means it was fabricated at the factory in Sweden
5th digit has something to do with what type of turbo (if any) it was equipped. I know earlier 9000 models had D = turbo . Not sure what f denotes.
6th digit is body style. I only know that 5 = 4 door hatchback. 8th digit is engine type (horsepower) Don't know what m means. Probably std 2.3 litre 200HP at 5500 RPM'
Sounds like that car must have been stored for a while. Lucky you !
