Hello all you FWD guys...
I drive a '91 780 Turbo and am considering purchasing a '99 C70 HPT coupe, automatic. You can find the one in particular I'm considering by looking on eBay and searching eBayMotors for "Volvo Super Coupe". Seems like a real nice car for the money despite the slightly higher than average miles (61K). I've spoken with him and he answered all my questions. The car was in an accident but was (duh) repaired completely. The only thing that worries me is that there was apparently some suspension damage during the accident, although all affected components were replaced. I dunno.... I like RWD because it's so much easier to work on, but I'm getting tired of crossing my fingers when I go to start the damn thing in the morning. Any advice, positive or negative, as well as things to look for when shopping for other C70s would be appreciated. If I had my druthers, I'd be looking at a 2000-2001 Black HPT Coupe w/ the 5 spd. Any thoughts on that?

Thanks in advance, guys....

-Jon
