Manual Gearbox: 1999 Volvo V70 T5

This next car comes as a tip from Art C who writes: Less than 300 (~280iirc) of this gen v70 t5 manual wagons imported (98-00). Best looking obviously. 2.3 turbo 5 is stout and sounds uhhhhmazing when downpipe/exhaust fitted. This is clean and priced very reasonably.  Find this 1999 Volvo V70 T5 offered for $4400 in Westchester, NY via craigslist.
