They were only brought over in 1979 and 1980, and according to TSN's 900 History FAQ, there were only ~24,000 900s in total imported those years. There were only 3-doors and 5-doors back then, and I can't imagine 5-door sales totalled even half of all the 900s brought over - later 4-doors only accounted for 25-35%, and I'd imagine 5-doors were similar. If that logic is sound, that makes for ~8,000 5-doors brought over 27 years ago... I can't imagine too many have survived.
I've seen four in the local junkyard in the past six years, and I sent one to the crusher myself (lots o' rust). I have an '80 in my driveway right now. I'd be surprised if the total number of c900 5-doors was more than a couple hundred in the US. Europe, however, is a whole different story...
