The convertable is a good car, my wife has a 95 900s (basically the same) with close to 120K on it.
A problem area on the early cars was the top mechanism. With later 900 models and the 9-3 the mechanism was changed from electric to hydraulic which seems to be less problematic. Nonetheless make sure it goes up and down smoothly.
Also make sure the car has had regular maintenance, if the seller does not have the records stay away.
The SID or "information display" pixels dissapearing is a common problem. It does not affect operation of the unit though.
The manual and automatics are good in the 9-3, the engine is bulletproof as long as the oil has been changed on a regular basis (at least every 5K hopefully with synthetic oil).
Good luck with your purchase.
