The 9-3 is available as a stylish convertible, which seems to be especially appealing for its combination of 4-seat practicality and compact size. A turbocharged 210-bhp 2.0L I-4 is standard. Transmission choices include a 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic. Value-conscious customers will prefer the base 2.0T Convertible due to its significantly lower price. The 9-3 Aero Convertible does have a sport suspension, two-tone leather seats, and 17-inch alloy wheels, but at a significant price premium.
