I'd second that. I've driven several new and slightly used versions of the 9-3 for extend periods while my 900S (...of the infamous '94 vintage...) has been in for some puzzling problems. The 9-3 seems a distinct, immediately noticeable improvement in ride and handling, has a near-perfect fit and finish, and just seems solid stem-to-stern. FWIW...my 94 is running quite well now that I've ironed out the bugs.
