  • Anyone out there???

    I just snagged myself a 2007 S40 T5 AWD last week. Definitely considering a RICA tune and intake for next summer, also need some summer wheels.

    What are the known good Volvo shops in town? Any local parts dealers or do you guys mostly buy from Eurosport?

      I've got a 2011 C30 R-Design. I'd look into Elevate, they're doing a ton of cool things with the T5. Personally, I'm going with Polestar software (warranty approved) and the Elevate Cat-Back exhaust. As for engine mods, after that I'll call it a day.

      Post pics! I must say, I'm hoping for it to be red with a stick.

            Haha, yes, yes I was. Were you the guy helping us out? He's still on the fence for what he's going to do, that guy is addicted to VW though, so it wouldn't surprise me if he's back.

            Unfortunately the car is Barent's Blue, not red, but has a stick! I'll get pics next time it's clean

                Yes, I believe I called you a jerk when I saw it Then he said you had an S4 Avant before, and I called you a jerk again. I actually just sold my B6 S4. One day, no matter how old it is, I will scoop up a low milage B7 RS4 and keep it forever.

                  Don't worry Derek really is a jerk Only a jerk can keep a car so nice and clean. It is almost like he buys more toothbrushes to clean his car than he does to clean his teeth!
