    Typical Volvo of that era. No inherent engine or transmission issues, just occasional electrical problems and the like as far as I'm aware. Perhaps someone who owns one will chime in with more details.

    I literally see at least 10 of them every time I'm out driving... and even though I should be bored by them, I'm not. I can see why they are selling them like hot cupcakes, very complete and potent cars.

    I prefer F30 though, much more agile.

    At least we get the F31 in the US...wish they would at least bring the F11 here at some point, but seems very very unlikely.

    I'm glad they're selling a lot of them where you are. That means I should get a decent deal on a used one in 7-10 years when I would look to import one (assuming they dont' bring them here before). :)

    Saw a pretty nice E46 M3 today in what I think was Individual paint "velvet blue" (purple and blue look depending on lighting)...might be what I paint the F11. :)

    I never saw a LeBaron spit so much black smoke like an old TDi.

    Does anybody here have experience with the Mercedes-Benz W123 300td turbo wagon? I'm looking for a good one and would like to hear some real world experience.

    Thanks.

    When I was in high school, my parents had an Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser station wagon. I loved that car. I used to take it out after an ice storm and just do 360s in the parking lot at maybe 20 mph. Oh, and did I mention that after you folded down the rear seats, the back part was really long.

    Hagerty monthly magazine Summer/2013 has a fantastic article this month about an Olds Vista Cruiser.
