Volvo S60-R 56k warning
So I took some pix of my friends car and wanted to hear some of your opinions. I know its not a Z but your welcome to flame if you'd like! The headlights were coming out a hell of alot bluer on camera for some reason soo yeah there really not that blue...
All customization was done at B-Line Motorsports. The spec's of the car are as follows:
-Sport Body Kit
-Custom Rear bumper made to dual exhaust.(stock is only on the left)
-Custom turbo back exhaust
-Custom headlights with deletion of amber and projectors molded into the position of the stock DRL's
-Custom CAI
-Evolve hood grills
-boost and oil temp gauges
-bunch of Misc. 07 R interior pieces (steering wheel, ac vents ect...)
the car come's stock with 4 piston Brembos on all 4 corners...
soon to come:
-eibach springs
-IPD sway bars
-06 s60R transmition swap
-Bell FMIC
-tune
-I know I'm forgetting other ****
He is looking to make around 400awhp when its done.
these first 3 were taken by someone else at Car's and Coffee. The rest are mine.
For those who were asking about the gauges:
and a couple bigger.

Mostly I like it. The hood vents I'm not so crazy about.
If it were me, I would lose the headlight wipers, and the diagonal Volvo part of the grill for a cleaner look.
Looks good though

I fcking love this car. If I didn't buy a 350z, I was going to buy an S60R. 6cyl twin turbo, almost as fast as the Z stock, practical, safe, GORGEOUS. The suspension stiffness can be adjusted from in the car. I had an 850glt until January and yeah it was old and boxy, but that car was a fcking tank. It spent a few months partially frozen into a lake and survived. Volvo FTW.

Hmmmmm..... I must be mistaken. Either way they're fcking nasty. I'd take an S60R over a BMW 3 series any day. Too many 3 series cars on the road. S60R is rare!

Me too, but I would still take a z personally.
