Nothin special, but i absolutly love my daily driver. Just wanted to give a little shout-out to volvo.

                            sspony's 2001 Volvo S60

 It has a 2.4 turbo 5cyl, with a 5 spd transmission. Cold air intake. 

Its fast, especially in the top end. Handles great, rides smooth, and is reliable. Governer doesnt kick in till 142mph, and once you hit 55mph its not hard to get the rest of the way...haha. The only problem i have with this car is its poor turning radius in parking lots and such, and the fact that the bulbs consistently burn out. Otherwise a great car!!! Oh and i have 2 12'' MTX Subs in the back, with a 1200 watt amp.(nothin special)

   Well today my baby was assualted by a Deer... So i need to get a new hood, windshield, and driver headlight assembly. If anyone knows of any Hoods or lights for a good price let me know. I would greatly appreciate it- Thanks...

if they are stock bulbs i would spin them first. on Swedespeed there are many people, including myself, who find that the bulbs just pop out. i get "bulb failure position light" 4-5 times a year. nice car btw!

It really wasnt that difficult me and a buddy did it in about 2 hours. THe hardest part was finding the T5 turbo. And yes it does make a diffrence when you hit the 2600 to 2800 rmp mark you can feel the turbo pull alot more. Iam glad i did it. Thanks for the comment.

the turning radius is cause of the adaptive steering and the fact its got front drive axels. If you dont mind using spacers u can make it turn pretty tight.
