Volvo has a storied wagon history for sure. I still have an old magazine whose cover picture is a yellow T-5R. The caption is something along the lines of "153 MPH Wagon?!". And I'd buy a new 240 tomorrow if it was available.Quote:

Someone buy it and post a TR here about what a big mistake I made passing up on a wagon I have no need for.
This --> "what a big mistake it was not buying shit I don't need"
No worries; looks like a Step tranny
RWD gas automatic? Go to the corner and put on the dunce cap.Quote:

We'll try again.
Inline 6 BMW engine is all time. Turbo charging pretty much sucks for regular street driving if you ask me. I hate roll on power around town. I've never driven an innocuous turbo. It's also fun to have an engine you can stir.
The new B58 inline 6 with twin turbos from BMW is pretty fucking awesome. http://www.bmwblog.com/2016/01/21/bm...-engines-list/
The turbo comes in pretty smooth.
That seller always has some interesting stuff, albeit almost always a few grand overpriced.Quote:

Yeah, it seems no matter the car they tend to be in excellent shape but definitely overpriced a bit.Quote:

I heard it sucks on the audi all roads...
Car in question...

If it's an issue on the Lexus LS I am pretty sure it's an issue everywhere.
Somebody should pick this up... Pretty unique, but come on man, no sport seats after all that work? http://losangeles.craigslist.org/lgb...696.html<br />
Bummer, link no work.Quote:
