Who demands a lot from their 850 on a regular basis? 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Juan P. on  Wed Feb 11 14:22 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Seeing as my car ('93 850 GLT, "White beauty" is her name) just turned 102k miles last week, I was wondering to myself how many 850 owners ask their vehicles to perform on a rigorous, everyday basis or just once in a while.

Since I'm in school at the moment, I don't drive my 850 very often, but when I do, it is always on the weekends and always on a long road trip because I love to drive long distances. I have driven from Burlington, VT to Concord, NH just to have lunch and driven back to VT, all for the thrill of it. And it is all interstate driving that I do, and my car almost always sees 80+ mph and 3000+ rpm without fail.

I'm just curious to see if the other 850 owners out there are intending to drive the wheels off their cars, just like 240 drivers often do...
