eBay Find: Volvo-Powered Caresto T6 R Hot Rod

Aug 29, 2011 - 8:57:19 AM

This was one of the biggest surprises in the hot rod world when it debuted back in the early 2000s. Now it's for sale in Sweden, and the seller will help ship it anywhere. Doesn't everyone think a Swedespeed reader needs to own this?

Here's what Hot Rod Magazine had to say about the T6 R"

“One of the most spectacularly crafted hot rods ever to grace the pages of this or any other car magazine. The T6 roadster sets a bench mark few of us will ever attain. And it’s the only foreign-fabricated car to ever take the top position in this magazine’s annual Top 10”

Underneath the aluminum and composite skin, a 330-horsepower T6 and a four-speed geartronic put the power to the rear wheels and all that power pushes just 2370 pounds. And of course, it's quite fetching to look at.

Act soon, because the auction ends today (Monday, August 29). A $5000 deposit is required, with the full balance due within 15 days. As of this writing, the car was sitting at a still hot deal of $32,100.
