Product Overview
Saab 9-3 (chassis code YS3D) Convertible is a compact executive convertible in production from 1998 to 2002. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 2.0 to 2.3 liters.
Based on the 5-door liftback Saab 9-3 sedan, the convertible is rather much more elegant. Though it is not a coveted vehicle, its simplicity and overall good styling have made it a good choice for a casual fun car.
