I'm interested in opinions on the various engine combo's available in the 96/97 900 convertible mated to the 5sp. Is the 2.3L engine responsive ? I know I should go drive one, and I will, but I'm not going to get a chance to take it up on a long highway through the mountains, or fill it with four adults and go out with a "full load". I don't drive like Mario Andretti (any more :-) but I can't stand driving a car that feels under powered. So, I'm looking for opinions. Also, how about the V6 ? It adds a few HP, but it also appears to add a 150lbs of weight. Is it much of an advantage ? Is the Turbo the only way to go with this car ? I'd also be interested in hearing about other things to look for when buying a used 96/97 900S or SE. thanks, bob
