It's time to start bulking up on 850s

Public Service Announcement Parts are getting/have been end-of-lifed at the dealer (EOL), and 850s are (alarmingly) hard to find in pick n pulls. If I had land and a flatbed, I'd be pulling them onto my property like a comic book super villain and his super magnet. It is, after all, the greatest pa...

Re: It's time to start bulking up on 850s

I see four stages to any car model: 1) New, available at the dealer 2) Used, widely available but no longer made, inexpensive to buy and maintain 3) Rare, running examples fetch decent money -- "More than they're worth" :roll:, parts EOL and hard to find 4) Rare & Classic, good example...

Re: Is the 850 becoming a classic?

Yes, it's becoming a classic. When will prices go way up? When the people with high nostalgia for 850s hit 45-65 age. So if you were say 15 in 2000 and your family had an 855, you might want to get one for nostalgia reasons at age 45-65, when you have the most discretionary money to buy and keep suc...

Re: It's time to start bulking up on 850s

There is latitude here for differing opinions on what safety means. That said, let's not level accusations. Maintain respect for one another please.

I edited one post and deleted one.

Re: New MVS t-shirts are in!

Thanks for the input, guys.

I have some of the greatest (to me) shirts in the world, printed on the worst quality t-shirts. It's heartbreaking. I don't want to wear them. So for me I can't go/won't go low quality on shirts I print.
