Want to say "hello" to all the brick, box & R members out there on the forums. I came over from the "dark-side" (SAAB 900 - at least it's Swedish?) to the land of high-pressure turbos, awd & 5-doors. I'm in the Bay Area, CA & would like to get to know performance wagon owners in my area.

Cheers

 

Congrats!

 

I found a 2004 R for sale and I am thinking of buying it. Can you give me any advice about what to be concerned about?

 

"LakeG".... I really don't have much intel. on the newer models. I'm more into the 850 T-5R & 1st gen. V70R's. Ask around on the boards - you will find many opinions and some good do's & dont's. Cheers mate.

 

R AWD..always love to see that on the streets.

 

Welcome to the forum OP.

As for the 04 R, out side of the AWD, it is an awesome car.
