The difference is likely due to the second 9000 model being a Gripen in Swedish and was the symbol of one of the truck makers that Saab merged with and now has sold off again. It is also the symbol of the southern most county in Sweden, Skåne. Griffin for 9000 and 9-5 symbolises a top equipped car and sveral versions of 9000 and 9-5 have been badged Griffin.
I suspect that car you have may be a saloon, the 9000 Griffen, this car has a sports pack, red-box APC which boosts performance and a lowered sports suspensions which explains why one car scrapes the road when the other doesnt. If you paid the price of a 'oridanary' 9000, you probably got a bargain !
'Special edition' 9000 often didnt have the turbo badiging on he rear my 92 9000 Carlsson justs says "carlsson" and gives no clues to its 2.3litre Turbo 220BHP potential. A small turbo badge on the grill is the only thing that occasionally stops me surprising Mazada owners at the traffic lights
