964 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Well Its finally come time to get my car. I'm debating which car to get. This past weekend I went to go check out a 1991 245 SE, 145k tan on tan leather, all original, $3,000. Then Sunday I went to check out a black on black 1998 V70 AWD, 140k, no radio, and the whole rear of the car shakes, $4,500. They said the rear rim needed to be replaced, which they would replace for free for me. I'm going to go drive it again this weekend to see if its better. Well anyways I'm stuck between them, the 245 is retro which is cool but the V70 is newer. Help me decide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Help me decideHow much reserve cash do you have to spare? The 245 will be cheaper to fix and keep up. Th eAWD can have alot more wrong and considerably more expense. if money ain't the key......I'd probably go for the V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
964 Posted February 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Well my dad has the money, he really doesnt want to spend anything more then 3500, but hes worried the 240 will be too slow.

Zaitz Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 That 245 sounds too expensive and the v70 sounds like a pos. Could easily get a base model 850 for that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoony Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 are you actually going to get it or are you just making a useless thread? You better have legit proof of ownership before you post a pic of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
