!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! into one of these:
A Volvo 262 coupe. Tuck in the bumpers and put it on STS-V magnetic suspension. Add Corvette style side pipes. Give it a really nice sound system. Leave the rest of the exterior alone and start cruising in style.

Nope, the 262C has never worked for me. The rear is slightly awkward, the greenhouds just not 'right' and the headlights are atrocious.

Dunno why Volvo used those twin lights, never looked as good as the single ice-cube looking ones. Spoils the look of some otherwise nice cars.

Because there was a rule that stated that cars needed to have twin identical beams or something like that. It was a form of US protectionism thinly disguised as 'safety rules'. It ruined the look of the DS, SM, CX, E28, SD1 and a host of other cars.

Yeah I did initially think that was a US-spec thing, but that pic is showing Norwegian plates...
