there is no comparison between the two when considering body skin construction and materials. C900's fenders are all spot welded on (60 welds for each front quarter, 100 for the sail panel, ask me how i know) making the car heavier and stronger. For all i know the 9000's were not put together like this and certainly the body panels and skin were not as thick and strong as a 900. i drove a 9000 NA once and there seemed to be no road feel at all compared to a 900 and the clutch was total mush - couldnt feel the engagement point hardly at all. huge back seat however, and much wider cabin.
