I've checked out so many cars for sale only to find out it's a p.o.s. a couple weeks ago I looked at a 96 prelude si for 2500, looked good in pics lady totally misdescribed it, I get there and find out it's salvage title, no airbags in it, paint beat to shit, big dent/sideswipe on driver's door, interior smells like wet dogs, abs lite on, etc. etc. etc. And I drove 45 miles to look at it

sweet dude. the aero is a beast. get some springs shocks for it to tighten it up a bit and enjoy the extra 100 horsies upgrade from the CL.

but seriously, i'd take a volvo wagon. not over my cl, but there are some pretty nasty volvo wagons out there, like ''volvette'' , and i'd take 1 over a saab wagon anyday if it were manual.

@your first statement
@ your second statement: there were such a small amount of volvos produced that were stick, and even a smaller percentage produced that were wagons, its a needle in a hay stack. id have better luck finding a 4th gen supra.

I thought id update yall; or at least those that want me gone.
Checking out a 9-5 SE in the next couple of days, http://www.mackeyboy.net/vehicledeta...?VID=100277131
got an offer for 4500 for my CL, not nearly the profit I was looking for, but it still leaves me with some extra $$

They don't list miles on that audi, just that it's 25K per year which would be 200K miles? Pretty high miles on both of those cars

Yeah the Audi scares me for sure especially since it's probly got pretty high miles.
I would try and hold out for a volvo personally if you want somethin different, I like em better than saab and from what I hear they're really reliable.

I agree, the audi does have higher miles, but 130k for that saab is high miles? my acura is the first car ive owned with less then 130k miles lol
coming from owning an audi, i know what im in for if i do get my feet wet with it, and i wont buy it without my indie once overing it.

I would say no, unless all you look for in a car is a fun drive. Everyone i know who has had a saab, especially new ones, has HATED the reliability. from what ive HEARD, after 70,000 miles, get rid of it.

The one that i raced was a yellow stickshift one. i dont know if that 1 in the add is stick. look on swedespeed.com/volvospeed.com or something like that, a kid i know with a volvo that says he frequents those forums and says theyre helpful sites.

So after a lot of thoughts and several test drives, i too have decided to hold on to my CL for now. im going to keep advertising it for 5500$ and if i can get a cash buyer then great. Although im interested in going back to the world of BMW's after driving an e38 750iL the other night. I must admit the A8 4.2 Quattro 6 speed was one hell of a car as well.
Blackack you can go ahead and lock this up for now

So. i received an offer i couldnt refuse, shortly it will be in my driveway, for now.. the guessing game.
I know two people know what it is, and a third should be able to identify it based off this, but this is fun! more pictures come with more guesses
