oh what's not to like about 300hp, AWD, 6 Speed Tranny goodness!

hmm, i dont know if the sarchasm was taken as me against the 850R? you see, i would've actually liked driving one of those around if i could've found one back when i liked them. i love the growl of an inline 5 turbo. haha. not to mention kicking peoples asses and getting the "wait was that a volvo?". true the S60R is more comfortable but meh.

hrmm it might do ok. it weighs 600lbs less than the evo. I've heard they've got a hard time hooking up, but it'd be interesting to see. costs about the same too

I think honestly i'd go with the V70R though. Nothing beats whooping up on mustangs in a station wagon

I came to this thread to see if there was gonna be a RX7 meet..... Are we gonna meet with C10s, Volvos, Evos, junk cars, 5.0s, S60Rs, or are we just gonna see who can pop their rotary the quickest?

Did any of you ADD ***** ever set a date and time?

ok i don't know what clam to fame the other volvos people have mewntioned have but the 1989 Volvo 740 Turbo Intercooler wagon was the worlds fastest production car of 1989. This is info i got frommy father so don't yell at me. personaly i think worlds fastest Production Wagon for 89 is more likely.

also im posting this just to be off topic. im so bad... Smile

Ya, Greg. If I go, then we can hook up. Just depends on my schedule. I would like to hook up and see your Megasquirted TII. I'm working on a turbo motor that I'm thinking about squirting. Just PM me your # or something, I don't wanna get this thread off topic or anything....

You can give it to gxl90rx7 (Jamin) if I'm not at the meet, but Ill probably make though.
