Up for sale is a 1991 740 Turbo Wagon. The car has been modified to enhance the driving experience, included removing the entire roof section and upgrading the stereo. The car runs and drives great. Super fun to drive around town. Front windows roll up for great freeway cruising. All seatbelts are functioning. Rear seats fold down with tons of space for hauling around town. Clean Title in hand. 195K Miles. I am moving out of state which forces sale. The car turns heads everywhere it goes.
Price is negotiable, cash talks.
Features include:
Ipod hookup
12" Audiobahn in bandpass enclosure
Rear doors welded shut for stiffness
Heated Seats
Automatic w/ OD
Alloy wheels
Black leather interior
Folding rear seats
Cash Only

Rear doors welded shut, but the thing will still fold nicely in half at the front doors.
Luckily located where it rarely rains.
On the one hand, red turbo wagons with black interiors are hard to find so I'm kinda sad it got cut up.
On the other hand, that's motherberkeleying AWESOME.
With some added under body supports it would make a good beach-mobile.
Craftsmanship at the welds!
A real point of failure...this so begs for the third row seat.
that door weld most likely provides plenty of chassis stiffness. I wouldn't worry.

"modified to enhance the driving experience" ?
Sounds like a berkeleying condom, not a car.
It doesn't have a roof, and you might die, but don't worry...it has an "upgraded" stereo!

Looks like the perfect car for Seattle!
Top Gear did it better with a minivan :)

I was thinking it sounded like a BMW commercial.
It is exactly like a condom, showing up to a date with one will prevent pregnancy. Sometimes turning heads is a bad sign not a good one.

The only way to improve it would be to put in some hot tub jets and fill it with it Mr Bubble.

"Moving out of state, which forces sale" Why? Will no other state allow that thing inside their borders?

Turned inside out for his pleasure.
I can totally believe that it turns heads everywhere it goes........but not in a good way.

"I rolled my rally car and needed to re-roof it, and this is the leftovers"
Flat black painted upper windshield tint . . . I'm gonna steal that idea for sure.
