I got the 900 (1997 SE Talladega). The 9-3 wasn't available. The dealership said they'd checked it and it wasn't up to their standards so they were sending it to auction. Whatever. I feel in love with the 900 as soon as I got into it. In excellent shape, everything works, bright red with black leather. One local owner (from Carfax). The higher mileage doesn't bother me. Low mileage cars can hide a lot of problems produced by stop and go driving. It was a six hour drive home from the dealership, much of it on a dark and stormy night over substantial mountains. Car was perfect, although it does need new shoes. Has some odd brand tires on now that don't do well in the wet. I'm off to Tire Rack to find something better.
