Cool car man, do you still have your AW?
I am VERY jealous of you. That is EXACTLY the car I wanted when I first started shopping for cars. It's a shame I couldn't find one. I get this sad feeling every time I pass one on the road. Oh well. My car has very similar performance statistics (if not just a shade quicker) and I get leather seats, and premium audio. But Nothing beats the cool factor of a blacked out P71 with a push bumper though.
Oh yes! I'm pretty sick of them myself.. Some BBS RS type of things wouldn't be too shabby. Then a bit more lowering and spacers in the back!A Nordic Volvo on Eiker wheels, how different

I already did something like that yesterday by accident. I saw my buddy walking down the street and I made a U-turn after a car passed by and as soon as I pulled the u-turn the car that passed in the opposite direction slammed on his brakes.
I currently Drive a Ninteen Eighty Six Pontiac Fiero GT
This is my 1981 Volvo 244 GLT:
Lowered about an inch, white indicators instead of the ugly stock orange ones and Eiker E1 17x7,5" rims.
136 HP and 190 NM (stock).
It's going through a cylinder head restoration at the moment though (driven without motor oil for a while).
Thanks! Not only does it have a pushbar, but it has everything else a police car would have haha. Lights, Siren and the cage. I think your 300M Special would be quicker though with it's weight advantage. This thing just loves to be sideways though.
Wow, lights and siren still? All P71s here in the states are stripped of everything police except the pushbar and spotlight. No cage, no plexiglass, no lights, and definetly no siren.
How much do the P71s weigh? I forgot. I think its damn close to 4000lbs though. My engine is rated for 255hp but is really only making about 180 to the wheels (due to the crappy tranny Chrysler decided to use). I see yours is a 2002+ since it doesn't have amber turn signals in the brake light, so if its a 02-04 your engine is rated at 215hp (225? it's been a while since i last read all the specs on the P71). 05+ they are rated for 240hp I think (again, it's been a while). Either way, after you figure in drivetrain loss and my weight advantage and the gearing of the tranny, I think we would have a pretty even race. I'd get you off the line but you would catch up after 70 or 80 and then it would be neck and neck.
Yes I still have the AW. I sold my EF though..
I'm just addicted to MR2s.
I believe they weigh over 4000lbs. Not to mention my front push bar up front is made of steel and would add a bit more. Mine is actually a 2000 P71. The P71's for 2000 were rated for 225hp and 290ft lbs of torque. In 2002 they were uprated to 239hp and then in 2004 they were uprated again to 250hp. I think you'd get me in a race due to all the extra weight I have. This car is way too fun to just drive the speed limit and watch everyone in your rear view mirror afraid to pass me. It's also hilarious to see cars coming at me dip down because they are slamming on their brakes so hard when they see me coming haha.
Funny story, was filling up at a gas station today when some cute chick in her modified integra pulled up beside me to fill up as well. She got out looked at my car for a few seconds then looked at me with a weird look, looked at my car again and gave me a cute smile. I love this car.

👍I want a beige 242/4 with the early grill (gamla fronten ), US tails and polished RSs. Most 200s around here look the same.
That Volvo looks awesome!
PuTTe_TuTTe, your Volvo, I'd drive it all day.
Thanks guys, glad someone likes it!That Volvo is sexy as hell. 👍
Definitely!Does this mean you are discovering the joys of a cool sedan with a V8 in it?
Sadly this car doesn't have a front bench seat as it has a makeshift console for the sirens and CB radio.Two words: Bench seat
