Thinking of getting a new car
 
Well i might be getting rid of the ------'d out Envoy. It's a sweet truck but just not practical and 22's combined with most of the roads around here just sucks.
So I've been thinking of a Volvo wagon I on;y want to spend at most $5-6000 canadian
here is a couple I've been considering
#1) 99 V70R Turbo AWD auto. $10000( i know it's more then i said)

#2)95 850 5spd $5000

#3) 97 857 AWD 5spd $3750 says there is a tranny problem

Any other ideas?

those wagons are pimp, I'd like numba 1, but numba 2 in in the price range and a pretty color.

I don't miss my 850T at all. I vow upon this day that I will never buy another Euro car. I'd say go with a Subie. Cheaper parts and bigger aftermarket. How many AWD Volvo's do you find at the junkyards... :X Plus those Volvo wagons are HUGE and HEAVY!!!. Not to mention they have those goofy ass 5 cylinders and alot of Volvos are auto.
