Dark red 850/S70 - Who did I run into/say hello? (Anyone from here?)

Post by zwh02 »

Going out on a limb here - (ya never know)

Was pulling into a parking lot this evening right around dusk, and a dude in a nice looking condition dark red (dark green? can't remember) 850 or S70 shouted greetings as I passed by.

Caught me off guard but wished I had stopped and chatted a minute..
Judging by the condition the car was in the guy is obviously an enthusiast and just might possibly be a member here on MVS....??? Located California central valley/Modesto
