John:
I have a 93 900S auto; also would prefer the 5-spd, but have no problem cruising the 200 mile round trip to my daughter's home at 70 mph. RPMs are at 3500-3700 and it does seem a bit strained; however, don't think it poses any problem -- these engines were built to operate at high RPM. I routinely get 25-28 mpg on such trips. In truth, I like the feel and sound of the engine doing its thing at that speed.
