Open the hood, and peer down into the engine bay at the intercooler. If the inlet and outlet are on the same sides (two tubes out same side), then it is not a HOT model. If there is one in and one out on opposite ends, then you have yourself a HOT model.
Now, I may be wrong, but reading here, manual transmission 9-3 SEs were HOT, and it is also stated on this site under model info -
"the new 200 hp high output turbo engine in the Saab 9-3 SE 5-door and SE Convertible variants with manual transmissions and the 185 hp engine for all other Saab 9-3 Coupe, 9-3 5-door and 9-3 Convertible models."
How much more is it worth, well, that's up to you. Major difference is the "Viggen" intercooler (so you save yourself one $400 mod if you were planning on performance mods). There was also a software modification to make use of the additional hardware.
I hope this helps! Thanks.
