    Nasty Volvo

    All it needs is some flares & real tires, lol. And maybe some different seats... They look pretty sweet, questions HANS approval.. or if they're even up to FIA standards for that matter. At least he bolted the harness to the rear cross bar instead of the OEM seat belt locations. pretty sick, regardless.

    wheel/tire size is horrible and kills the look of the car

      Otherwise it would be a pretty sick looking car, but the tiny little mexi-wheels really kill it :(

          At the end of the day, it's still a Volvo.

          Have they gone out of business yet? Paying for transmissions in XC90s can't be to lucrative.

          Almost lost SAAB last week...I think they'd be better off dead too. . . . . .

              wheels are stupidly small and ugly, but those taillights look really similar to the e30 taillights!

                  I have respect respect for older Volvo's like the 240. they were built pretty solid. you cant really pick the xc90 and use it to represent all of volvo's accomplishments. thats like choosing the X5 to represent all of BMW(which have shit transmissions as well). Dont get me wrong... I dont support the purchase of a "new" volvo. Also that pshop Lexus is fucking hilarious.

                    I really don't like any of them. Really. Sure, they're good cars and all, but I absolutely hate working on them.

                    I am biased though. I know BMWs. I don't know Volvos like I do BMWs, therefore I have had bad experiences with them and my opinion reflects that. ;)

                      Because a new bmw is so pleasant to work on, don't even start.
