Hmmm, out of a convertible? I know in the first test of the 900SET, C&D recorded a 0-60 time in the mid 6's while later models were closer to 7. IIRC, their test of a base 9-3 (185hp) returned a 0-60 in the mid- to high-7's (7.8 comes to mind). I don't recall the exact numbers, but that first SET had a lower final drive ratio (higher numerically) than the later cars (incl. my '95) did/do.
It really is a moot point, FWD just isn't a good setup for standing-start acceleration tests. The Saab trans. is too fragile to beat on as well.
