Yes.. aquired this 740 from a fellow in Minnesota. I can't believe the shape it's in, original paint, mint interior.. even underhood paint is superb!

So I made my own 2.5" exhaust using the magnaflow muffler off the 244. Made a huge discovery from my 244s old exhaust, save that for another post.

Anyway, this one is going up for sale. The 745 is the new winter beater, I actually bought it off rockmotion on tbricks. It's rough, but I have a hard time driving a nice car in winter, that's why I couldn't bare to drive this one in winter like I intended.

Beautiful car! How much are you selling it for? I've never seen a 740 that looks this good

Gotta check the date... :wink:

This forum isn't terribly active so even though a post may be on the first page, it might not be too recent.

PM Roj, he bought it from Geoff and was thinking of selling it last year. I think he already has, but you never know...

With a car that looks this good, can you really blame me for skipping over the date?

If its the red 740 ti on kijiji, yeah I saw it. 430 000 kms on it right? Bit high for me... but the v70 looks as if it'll die soon(clutch, LSD, Driveshaft CV's) so I'm lookin for a car that'll cost less than the repair bill(somewhere around 4 or 5 grand) this will probably keep me from rallying in november..... sigh.....
