A whole lot sounds too good to be true and fishy too....35MPG??? No 850 I know gets that, even if no turbo, even on the highway. Large sun roof....they're all the same size. Dual mode automatic transmission? What does that mean? I would suspect that the TB hasn't been changed and even if cosmetically it looks good, I would wonder about the "frame damage" that caused the insurance company to total the car out not to mention other maitenance. Was the frame bent? Depending on the type of hit, the air bags may or may not deploy, so that's really not a telling sign. Also, is the check engine light on? If you really want an 850, I would go look at it but be very very cautious. Does the A/C work? A salvaged car in good condition....I might pay 2-3 grand for one if everything checks out.
