Subject: Re: 9-5 wagon


Thanks for the heads up. Tonight I took delivery of my 9-5 wagon (SE V6). I can confidently say that, after 124 miles, there have been no problems so far. ;) It is a beautiful beast. The V6 turbo is substantially quicker than the V6 Camry sedan it's replacing and far more powerful than the 2.8 liter V6 Audi A6 wagon I test drove. The sound system is a delight also. Handling and road feel are definitely sporty by Camry standards. I really don't feel like I'm driving a wagon at all. Anyway, time to go to bed and read the owner's manual. Thanks for all your input. - Rob Malkin Ken Ferguson wrote in message >I don't know if they have fixed this yet in the 9-5's but the 99 model year >had a problem with the gas tank, and it would audibly clunk when you stopped >with a partially full tank.
