Because volvos are just badass

The V70R has a turbocharged 5 cylinder and AWD, with the practicality of well...a large wagon.

Haha yep that's us. I went to middle school with Alan and a couple of the other guys at Hoover. So that's how we all know each other.

I never said volvos weren't cool. Just wondering how they are considered JDM

unless of course JDM has been redefined to mean something that is cool, but I doubt that has occured.



they are nice pictures though

And it can take most cars on the road. It could eat up the last gen mustang GT allll day. And it's a wagon! But they're pretty over priced. ($43k)



<<<< used to be HUGE into Volvo's.

Yeah, the friend that took the pictures is really into photography. He acquired a photopass for the san jose grand prix and shot a bunch of photos there as well. You can see his stuff at http://www.xanga.com/mattoleary
