Possibly the more upright (less aerodynamic) windshield design of the classic 900 series results in the lower blow-off speed.
One disadvantage of Rain-X and Saabs that I discovered is that given that Saab windshields appear to pick up scratches/dings from road debris more easily than other cars which I have owned, the performance of Rain-x re worsening the visibility through the windshield at night (when looking at other cars on-coming lights) is a real problem. I wound up having to stop using it on our 1990 900S until we got the windshield replaced with a new one.
