Default Selling the R - need some moral support

Hi all, haven't posted here in a while since the R has been running flawlessly. Unfortunately the time has come to let her go. It's breaking my heart to post her for sale.

Have any of you had to say goodbye to your 850?

I can relate. My first 850 was a base 850 wagon. Sold that for a '96 850R with only 50k on it. LOVED that car, owned it for about a year, but really needed the room of a wagon. Sold that car (still miss it to this day) and searched for over a year to find my current '96 850R wagon. This car I've owned for approx. 2 years. Done a manual swap to it, and fixed a TON of neglect. My most favorite car I've ever owned. I was almost forced to sell it a few months ago due to financial hardships, but decided not to let it go (I had 3 guys offering me over $7k at the same time...they were competing for my car). I am so happy I didn't let it go.

I sold my yellow sedan last year but i had recently picked up my wagon so i think that helped me. Now i still miss the 960 i sold to get the wagon. As long as you're not swapping it for a '98 Saturn you should be ok. Lol
