DO I WANT THIS? WHAT IS IT?

A friend has offered me his car. It's in Boston and I'm in L.A. It's a 2006 T5 wagon with a manual 6 speed and fancy orangey leather. I want to say it's a V70. Goes like stink. It's in excellent, dealer-serviced condition and 2 sets of wheels and tires. 76K miles. He picked it up in Sweden when new and they put moose lights on it for him, whatever that means. And it has a sticker from some famous moose hunting club. Of course...

What is it, why does he think it's so special and do I want it? And what should I pay for it?

Thanks.

"Orangey leather??????
That would be Atacama leather and that V70 is a V70R... NOT a T5 and depending on the year and mileage IS worth a lot (depending on your definition of a lot)!

If you're not interested please PM me your friends contact info as I would be
I also would be happy to tell you what it's worth when you give a good description and mileage
(Pictures would be very helpful)

V70_R_

You have to figure though.. the moose hunting sticker is going to devalue the car so much that the car is a total write-off. PM me and I'll be happy to arrange a tow and take ownership of the obviously defunct automobile. I wont charge you for this, only because I am nice and I MAY be able to recoup some loss with my highly specialized moose-hunting-club-sticker-removal-skills. I am probably the only person in the country who can do this.
