Default Must... Resist.... BOOOST!

With all the drama going on in the LBC, what with half the Type R's on the board stolen, it's been hard to resist getting out. Selling #9 for one of these bitches:



240 factory-boosted hp. Suspension, brakes - all that ****. Basically a Volvo "Type R." 'Course, I'd have to get red or black though. The only downside - only autos were brought to the States, no 5-spd

I may be willing to settle for a T5 - same goodies, but only 222hp.

Best part? Readily-available replacement ECU that takes either engine to.... 275hp!

Sooo tempting...

No... T5R!!! That car is so bad ***. I love that thing. All my friends call me nuts for liking a volvo.. especially a wagon.. but those haul!

You could either do that or do what I did... sold my soul for boost!

Nah, #9 will stay NA, if I keep her. She and her Toda love have been so sweet to me

If I recall correctly, the wagons have more even weight distribution than the sedans, which is why the Volvo touring cars are wagons


Pat, who will have a fast wagon one day

Pansy. You'll be off in the corner crying when I roll your *** in the AUTO wagon

Still doing research to see if the AOD is up to the task. Willie thinks so, and knows a shop that does performance rebuilds.


Pat, who thinks Brian Spankme is afraid

if you want a sleeper, get a e34 5-series bmw wagon (91-95/96). you can get them with the 4.0 V8, a real transmission. also, you can swap in a M5 motor. 300hp, RWD, in a wagon? sheeeit.

Rob- who likes fast wagons too, but knows no matter how fast, an auto is still an auto. and is not scared of volvos. also he didnt realize Pat is indeed an old fart.

What do e34 guns go for? I found 2 pages of T5R's on autotrader, all less than $21k. Going to check some dealers this weekend to see what's up with the T5's. Hopefully, I'll find a sales dude or chick who knows their ****.


[edit]Keith's got a couple years on me, to put the "old fart" comment into perspective...[/edit]


Pat, who is younger than Will, and acts like it

ah see thats it, the 540 wagon (v8) is very rare indeed. Now find a 530 (POS 6) with 6 million miles, buy it cheap, then put some g00tness in there (domestic v8? 540 motor and 6 speed?) and you will be rolling. but thats if you want to do some w0rxors
