I kept up with the 900 from 1982 to 1987 and "S" does not mean it is an automatic. There were 900S, 5 speeds. The model that I don't know much about is the 1986 900S 2 door. Maybe, maybe not it was only automatic (but I doubt it).
I wasn't in the US 1987-1988 so ask someone else.
In European markets, I believe the base 900 was sold as the 900GLi, later 900GLS or 900i. I think the 900S was sold as the 900EMS in the early 80's. I'm not completely certain as I didn't live in Europe in the early 80's.
