I think that you're making the right choice....

As lovely as the 850's are, for that kind of money, you can almost always find a non-turbo. The turbos are the fascinating ones.

I'm pretty sure (in my own mind) that the "R" models are not the most desirable unless you live in an area with smooth roads, and are using the car for solo enjoyment. The standard turbo's suspension is much more forgiving than the "R"s. And the N/A cars don't offer the "rush" that invariably accompanies the turbos when they spool up.

Don't give up... there's one out there just waiting for your name on the title.

Good luck

Marty
