Re: 200 Saab 9-3, how to tell if it has HOT engine?

If you have the VIN, the 5th character is D in the base model and F in the SE. Also, the 8th character is H for the low pressure turbo and K for the HOT.
Based on appearance, the front and rear spoilers differ in shape between the models. The SE has a more angular look with the lowest portions protruding.
I believe the base model is less likely to have the sports steering wheel.
Hope this helps!
