Thanks! I drive up and down 159th regularly and have poked around the connected Subaru and neighboring Audi store a few times.

 

Nice pickup! Definitely a sleeper. Congrats!

 

Some more pictures of the car:

What a stunning car. WAAAY sexier than the G. I love Volvos; had a 2005 S40 and still have an XC90 2.5T.

 

Nice looking car OP!

Any future mods planned?

Thanks, I never really seriously considered a Volvo before, but always liked the old 850 T5R wagon. This one won me over and am loving the change. Doesn't quite have the same handling dynamics of the G, but it is way more practical and as fast in a straight line.

Thanks. I always do something to my vehicles. Started with tint, and will eventually get some wheels (5x108 is a tougher find). May also do exhaust, suspension and maybe change out to LED bulbs.

 

So I have been looking for a G35/37 for a few months now. I've been looking through the forums to find common issues, and what people have done as far as maintenance / mods.

I liked what I read, so earlier this week, I bought an 09 G37xS from a Volvo dealer in Orland Park. With Fortune Auto coil-overs. Then, I saw this thread: Jethro, I'm 99% sure I bought your car.

 

Nice upgrade, I hope you like your new Volvo. I too will be trading out of my G37 sedan soon. I love the car but the "power adders" are kind of useless unless you want to spend $12k on boost.

I'm looking at a 2011 Merc C63 in the next few months. They are hard to find local so I will bide my time till the right one presents itself.

Hahahaha very funny. But when the G loses a race to the wagon...

More cry here

 

I've thought about getting an S60 R-Design.

 

Volvo rated at 14.1 seconds in the quarter mile, slower than the G

Now THIS is embarrassing...

 

Sexier, eh? Did you know that some dudes are sexually attracted to pregnant women?

Same thing. LOL

G'luck with the new station wagon, Jethro. I bought a new Volvo once 15 years ago, and although it was a total lemon, always in the shop, there was a certain quality about it that I liked.

 

Hahahaha yes that is really embarrassing.

The T6 with the Polestar tune is a mid thirteen second car in the quarter mile. Honestly very similar to a G. V60 has a ton of torque, versus the high rpm power of the VQ.
