You should have investigated further.

The unparalleled success (in Saab terms, anyway) of the 9-5 led to
the early shutdown of the 9000 line. This happened in late 1997,
barely 6 months after the 9-5 was released to the hometown buyers in
Sweden.

Saab had fully intended to keep selling 9000s through 1999 - at least
until the 9-5 Wagon debuted - but they didn't really anticipate the
wild success they had with the 9-5.

The last 9000s anywhere were 1998 models.
