I don't know about the 900 but in the 9-3 an SE will give you, for example, automatic climate control instead of manual air con and a wooden dash (plus some other things I don't know about as I drive a 9-3 S). All 9-3 convertibles have leather interior. It is possible to put a wooden dash into an S, which is something we did. I think in some counties the S and SE denote different engines, the SE being the more powerful but that is not the case in the UK. The convertible is a heavy car so don't be put off a turbo. I drive a low pressure turbo convertible (150bhp) and it is very well mannered, although can go a bit light at the front end when under hard acceleration. Very easy to drive sensibly though. I believe the low pressure turbo replaced the 2.3 normally aspirated engine. Another good forum to try if you need further advice is www.nospam.co.uk Good luck, T.L.
