With the exception one missing trim piece, this thing looked brand new. Awesome car. My potato actually produced a couple surprisingly decent pictures as well.

I saw it from the other side, and when I crossed the street to take a picture and noticed this, I said "Come on!" out loud.

and besides for the fact that thing was either stuffed in the trunk or hastily resprayed because of something. Those badges are riding WAY too high

seen worse though

Awesome, I think if I was to take pictures of all special models of Volvos where I live I would be insane within a day, Scandinavians love their Volvos.

Ahhh, good eye. Don't know these cars well enough to notice something like that.

I don't doubt it! I could do the same with 10–20 year old Buicks where I'm from haha

yeah, it is one thing that bugs the hell out of me. It should have the Volvo and 740 Turbo scripts on the centerline of the trunk lip, with the intercooler script below that. If I had a car painted and the badges were riding high like that, I would freak out. Make a template before you take them off!

It still has its fuel door cover!

I had a 760 Turbo and mine was ripped off in an auto car wash. I recovered it the next day and super glued it back in place after fueling up the last time before trading it in...heh. Since then I've always looked at this body style and about 2/3s of them are missing.
