Just one small correction - you can get a non-turbo 4 cyl 9000 up through '94 if not later - my '94 9k CSE is a non-turbo. The turbo is much more desirable though, for the extra power. The 150 or so horses my n/a motor puts out are barely adequate in slow speed driving, although I have a need for speed and also find the power just fine for passing on the highway, especially if I downshift (which an autobox would do for you anyway). I'd worry about sapping too much power from the already none-too-powerful n/a 4 by running it through an automatic, and would get an LPT as a minimum with an automatic.
On the plus side, not having that pesky turbo in the way made it much easier to change the front motor mount this past weekend!
