    I bought my 1996 850 a bit over a year ago. With this year's license
    renewal, I got "the dreaded tick" for having to get an emissions test
    done before I can renew.

    I'm wondering how well do 850's fare at the test centers.... prior car
    was a Toyota Camry and the people at the test center said that Camry's
    tended to blow through the tests unless there was something seriously
    wrong with the engine.

    Well the 850 uses similar (if not identical) emissions controls and engine
    management as our (1993) 960, which passes with basically perfect scores...
    I'm talking fractions of a percent for the tests done in percentage, and
    single digits for the PPM tests.... Drive the car for 30 mins to warm it
    up, and go for the test... should pass, no sweat.
