This is starting to give a new meaning to yours, mine, and ours. Keep us posted on this new angle. DO you think she is game for moving east?

854=four door (sedan)
855=five door (wagon)

I didn't know what it was at first either, then I figured it out, and I was like, ooh, well D U H! haha.

An 850 is an 850. It's just an easy way to clarify if you have a sedan or a wagon. So yes, an 850 sedan is an 854.

I believe they are marked to the letter in Europe, at least they use to be. (745, 944, 965, etc.)

As for the chick with the Yellow R, have you stopped by to ask her to see the interior yet. Just tell her you were looking to upgrade your seats and heard the ones in her car was different so you wanted to check.

The 1st yellow T-5R I seen was pretty rough. My daughter spotted it (I can't see very well) and we followed it till it parked in my small town at a resturant. I had NO markings and had 16" 960 wheels on it. I later found out that the owner knocked all 4 wheels from under it. I guess he removed all the markings from it to give it the "clean look". He also had a black tail fin on it. It really did look bad. I would not touch that car with a 10' pole. To my knowledge it was the only one in the state until I purchased mine from NY.

Most cars can be cleaned up but I will not deal with one that has been abused.

I'm think I should get some sticky notes to leave in my car so when I see it at the Pick n' Save parking lot I can put a sticky note on her window asking if she wants to be friends. lawlz. It's in pretty good shape, though it's has the 850 columbias on it, and no rear spoiler. I glanced inside once and from what I remember it was in decent shape.
