The heater core job is probably keeping people away. I didn't read the whole ad, but if it's rust free and straight other than the minor body damage, it could be a good deal for $3k-$3,500. Those Auto-Plas louvers alone are worth probably $500!

Orlando Craigslist 1990 740 turbo intercooler wagon $2,200! Someone go save this wagon from a non Volvo enthusiast buying it. The A/C even works!

Love it! If only it was an M46 and I had the money right now... I'd be all over it!

$5,000 '97 850 GLT at the Volvo dealer in Wichita KS. 98,506 miles. At that price it better be fully loaded, slick inside and out.

That's steep for an 850 of any kind! Even T-5Rs don't get that much!

The interior better be immaculate. The scuffed up bumper isn't too promising.

It is not immaculate, issues on the rear bumper also, small dent in trunk deck, door panel need some work, looks like a stain in the trunk carpet.

Yeaaaaah.... that's far from immaculate. Lots of issues. Maybe a $3000 car.

Glad Im not the only one that dislikes pinstripes. Why do dealerships think pinstripes are a good thing?

One more in that club, pinstripes are awful. Almost as bad as those "gold badge packages" that they used to offer back in the '90s. Someone would electro-plate the badges (not sure the exact process) and the dealer would mark it up as a "special edition".
