After looking around it seems like there is no thread where ALL of us FWD/AWD Volvo owners can show off our wonderful Volvo's in one place without posting in the wrong forums and making some people angry in the process.

This is a thread that ALL FWD/AWD (and maybe the occassional RWD ;)) Volvo owners can feel free to post pictures of their cars and/or just about anything, but prefferably car oriented.

Now I know the general FWD & AWD forum doesn't receive too much attention, but hopefully some of you guys will stop by and post up some new pictures every now and then.

I'll start off:

...if this thread is already created somewhere and I've been too short sighted to find it I apologize.

Just keep posting more pictures of your car so I can drool over it some more. Thanks.

OK, I'll bite.

But this thread will be pointless w/o OceanRacer's XC.

Looks good.

Thanks, factory Bi-xenon, so they're already blue lenses. I added some blue vinyl for the halo effect, it was much cheaper than wiring in LEDs to the city lights.

Full LED conversion and a lot of custom stuff... Now just waiting on my new-to-me set of 18" 5 spoke wheels (Midirs).

Wheels are SSR gt10.
And yes there's an R there , because that's one of those super rare c70R that you never heard off.
J/k.
PO placed it on a car like 5 years ago, so I was just afraid to have ghost R when I remove it. But I'll have some cut/ buff ,detailing soon , so its gonna go.

Love the C70 coupes, they still look semi-modern! And those wheels are sick.

Let me know when you take that R off, I'll buy it :D

Have you considered debaging the C70 and centering/spacing out the V O L V O over the back of the trunk lid? It could definitely modernize it a bit.

Very nice! You guys have some amazing cars! Love it! Umm, can the new generation post as well? :)

As a modifier, sometimes I wish I would have gotten the previous generation S60, as there are hardly any performance products for the new generation!

My apologies in advanced for breaking the rules straight off and not posting one picture.

Here is my S60 originally with charcoal wheels:

However once the Heico quad tips and skirts arrived, I decided to go in a different direction with the appearance:

Just a bone stock 2005 V-70 with 105k on the clock! JHW

That's a nice new generation S60 Arith, I love the way the front looks, nice and aggressive.

Oh and the rules never said anything about only being allowed to post one picture, post however many you want.

I only started this because in the R forum people have been posting pictures of their S40's and some members have been getting upset since it's the "R forum" and an S40 is not an "R". Here in the general forum anyone can post up a picture without feeling like they'll receive backlash because it isn't an "R" or an "R-Design" or a "T5-R", it's a Volvo, we've all got that in common, so why not post up pictures that we can all enjoy without getting our panties in a bundle?

Great idea Stefan..........I for one enjoy the pictures and would love to see them updated daily!!! Are you going to enter your car in the June VCOA National Meet in town??? See you at the May meeting!!!
 
#22 ·
I'll most likely enter my car in for the National Meet, there are a few exterior flaws and interior flaws that may hold me back though. scuff on the instrument surround, rear bumper has a slight panel gap, dent in the passenger fender, shifter surround has the finish peeling, cupholder lid needs repair, stain in the trunk liner, and the reverse light switch needs to be replaced. Hopefully I can fix all that before the national meet!

I'm looking forward to hearing about your OSD experience at the May meeting!!

Good idea! I'm still new to Volvos so I'm just learning my way around this forum and the community. I'm glad there's a general area for pictures to cater for the owners who don't fall into any particular category.

Kind of off topic, but seeing those European export tags mounted in the front, makes me want to ask:

From the looks of it, Volvo employs employ some kind of a clip / bracket that avoids drilling holes in the front bumper, right? To mount the mandatory Euro front tag.

As I wouldn't any holes in my future front bumper ;)

Also convenient for parking stickers/passes. :)
