Volvo 760 Turbowagen

The wagon is lighter than the sedan.  Oh, and if it has Nivomats, replace them.  The headlights will suck, just remember that.  No matter how bright the light, the beam sucks.

The last owner replaced the rear shocks already, and I assume he didn't pay $500000 for the Nivos. He replaced the headlight lenses because the old ones were yellowed. If they suck, I'll reaim them, and/or get some Hellas.

MSN Autos doesn't always have the most accurate information, but it's good reference if you don't have anything else

Wagon 3272 lbs

Sedan 3305 lbs

You'd think the wagon would outweight the sedan because of the extra glass alone.

Plus it has a thrid row seat and extra sexyness. That's all extra weight.

I thought you wanted a 944.

I thought you wanted a 944.

Well, I want a terb0w box now.

[Cookie Monster]

I wouldn't mind an 850 terb0w either... FWD and all.

850s do have one more cylinder, and moar power...but the good ones were just out of my price range, and the cheap ones were either junk or sold too fast. So... You should get a Fiero. I'm tellin you. Fieros are teh shizznit

I have not found this fcp groton one, thx.

Stay away from FCP Groton. They also have been the supplier of parts for my E38, and as it turns out, most of their stuff is cheap chinese knock off. It just doesn't last, even if it's name brand. Especially bad are their suspension parts. Lots of horror stories on the E38 boards.

Thanks, I will keep that in mind. I don't want anything important to be some flimsy Chinese shit with lead paint.

[CJ]

For suspension, IPD is the only way to go.

Trep.

And Ringo Starr. 

I can't imagine trep being right about anything...ever.

Why put an entire new drive train in, when I can just turn up the b00st?

Because 4 cylinder engines don't sound as good as Ford V8's.

What if I wired in a microphone and loud speaker system to echo the sound of the 4-cylinder, effectively making sound like 8 cylinders?

Virgo's really only look good on a 240.

All Volvos look the same. It doesn't matter.
