850 vs 240 850

posted by  someone claiming to be TH on  Thu Oct 7 20:06 CST 2004 [RELATED]

If somebody were to give you a free 850 Turbo it would end up costing more in a few years than if someone sold you a super clean 940/960 Turbo for $5k.

They are fun (850's) but my limited experience says these are definitely not tough/reliable/simple. They are in fact the exact opposite, however, they are a real pleasure to drive on the occasions they are running right. If I could do it all over again, I'd buy a 940 Turbo.
