My wheels are not original. I hate the originals, plus they were pretty beat up. I also have a new black top. My car had 58,xxx on it this spring when I bought it. I just got back from 3000 miles of road trip with it in September. Now I'm at somthing like 66,xxx miles. I suspect it will leave the garage a few more times this year, then it gets stored for the winter.
This car is the same 2.0L Turbo engine that was used in all the Saab 16V 900 Turbo cars, but it has a "red box" APC tuned to give more horsepower. It has 185 HP. If I had to guess, the other turbos of the same year are probably 175HP, the only difference being the little red box in the front left of the engine bay.
The commemorative gets you the following:
ugly wheels (my opinion)
black piping on the power front seats
Tan top (black is easier to deal with, looks better in my opinion)
Metallic Black Paint (touchup paint is a dealer ordered item from Sweden)
Red Box APC
Wood Dash
CD Player
If the car you're looking at is well maintained and rust free, consider it a find. It's the newest of the Classics, and the convertible is FUN. I find excuses to drive it anytime I can. I just put a short shifter in it and it's that much more fun. My SPG feels like it has a school bus shifter by comparison.
