next car

I think that after I get the pearlie fixed up and shipped back to LA, I'm going to part ways with it. It's been a fun car, but it's just not practical, and I'm fed up with all the mechanical work the car's needed. It's basically destroyed my entire bank account, so I'm going to get as much as I can for it.

If I can find a job and get some cash together, I think I'm going to go after a Volvo 850 T5R sedan, I drove one for a day over spring break and was instantly hooked on it. It was amazingly quick, yet it blended in well with traffic despite the lowering springs, black wheels, and bright yellow paint. That particular car belongs to the owner of the shop that services my mom's v70T5.

So, what do you all think? Is that a logical step from the SVX?

(btw, anyone in the LA/Long Beach area, keep an eye out for my 92 appearing on craigslist around May)
