I believe all cars sold in the US of model year 1996 and newer require OBDII. (I'm not positive of this.)

I used to own a 1995 Saab 900SE turbo convertable, and still own a 1995 Lincoln Town Car. In CA both of these cost me extra with biannual smog checks because they were OBDI...which meant they do not monitor gas tank fuel recovery, and extra steps are needed to verify the vapor recovery system on each still works, to the tune of an extra $25 above regular smog check prices.

My newer cars ('98 Chevy S10 pickup, '02 Ford Explorer) are both OBDII, do NOT cost me extra on smog checks, and I can use relatively cheap OBDII diagnostic meters to extract and reset "check engine" codes.

From that I'm pretty sure yours is also OBDII. If so, there should be a diagnostic port (looks like a computer cable socket) below the steering column, or a label there saying just where the OBDII connector IS located. (That's an OBDII requirement, standardization not only of the connector and codes, but also where the connector is located.)

Hope that helps, Paul.

Where is the obd2 connector on a Saab 900 convertible?

obd2 were required on 96 and later cars, and by the specifications for it, it should be under the steering column or have a label there telling where it is. Earlier cars have the more generic obd sensors, which can be slightly different between manufacturers. As such a reader for obd2 is not usually compatible with older cars. I am not sure where the obe sensor is on pre-1996 saab 900s.

How much money can be saved by purchasing a pre owned Saab versus a new one?

The average price for a used 2003 SAAB is $7,832. A new 2003 SAAB averages $25,900. The difference here is $18,068. This is a big difference. I think you would better off buying a used SAAB and putting in another engine.
