So here is a bit of a dilemma I have: I adore my 1993 940 Turbo Wagon to death. All I've done performance wise is put a boost controller on it and is an absolute rocket ship; beating just about everything I have ever raced. It's comfy, durable, and is, by far, the most reliable brick that has ever been in my driveway. Sure the driver's seat is torn and a piece of the front fascia is missing, but it's my baby.
Like many of us, I searched Craigslist for other vehicles for sale in my area, and I really like the 960s. They seem to have a great level of refinement over the 940 along with the much more acquainted interior. The front end seems really soft compared to my 940, but still elegant. The main differentiator for me is the engine. A 2.3L Turbo vs. the N/A 2.9L six cylinder is a big difference. There is nothing like boost, and I sure would miss it very much. With 252,000 miles on my 940 and this other car only having 161,000, it would be a very nice upgrade to a newer vehicle like this 960. It's going for $1,700 and looks immaculate. I don't know how I could go wrong.
What do you guys think? Looking for some opinions on this very tough decision I'm going to make. Thanks!
