Any of you volvo pervs have any interest in a 91 turbo coupe? there is one up the street that I keep driving by. Super clean, all original un molested. Guys asking 5k for it. Been for sale for a month now and could probably be had cheaper. Just seems a shame to let it sit there.

Identical to this just in a burgundy redish color.

5K? Like five thousand? Dollars??!!!


I have turned down several of those coupes that were free. Maybe thats the single one of those cars without electrical problems.


The Bertone Volvo people are one of the more special groups of car weirdos. (Y'all know I love you tho..)

Lol yeah I didn't actually want it till I had to drive by it every day for a month. I finally stopped and looked it over and it is in impeccable shape. Now I still don't want it but it's like a lost pup that needs a home.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. I'm at my dads place near Chicago until late Sunday. Then I'm home for 3 days and leave for Big White Winter Rally. So not for a couple weeks anyway. We'll have to figure out something. As far as the volvo goes I'm going to hold off for a little bit. I just got another Integra that's not running but will be soon. I might just keep that for my daily driver/parts car. Or I'll sell it and buy a Volvo.

Nice seats, and the B pillar is back out of the way on those.

If you can hack the short stroke flimsy suspension..

Let it sit and become be somebody else's dream turned nightmare.
