I have a '97 900S and from my experience, I am skeptical about the improvement in reliability of the NG 900 over the years. My car has been a disaster. Problems have included dead battery and generator (in its first year), sagging headliner, defective foglight, defective seal around the windshield, dead a/c evaporator, blistering plastic trim on the B and C pillars, failed water pump, damaged front engine cover (came that way), intermittent stalling and failure to start and so many rattles and clunks that it sounds like a performance of Stomp. In summary, I wouldn't touch a NG 900 with a 10 foot pole. I did like the 9-3 loaner that I had once as it seemed much quieter and more solid. It also had some useful new features - including a cupholder!
Good luck.
Richard
