Anyone besides me want this? If I didn’t have a car with a payment I’d be all over this. A 98 V70 with a laundry list of mods and maintenance done within the last 40k miles. Ad claims 285hp and that’s believable from what I know about these, my brother  had a similarly modded 850 Wagon. It was a blast.

here is said list

Interior is in “okay” shape but this is a sub 4,000 dollar car.

overall this seems to be a nice example of an enthusiast owned and cared for car. Provided it’s a rust free as it looks I’d say its a solid NP at 3800

CP, I don’t trust a high mileage heavily modded car.

Is it just me or are cars like this always a trap? So it’s an enthusiastic owner, who invested tons of time and money into making the car look great, and now they want to sell it? 

I always feel like they know something is about to blow, and they want to get rid of it. Maybe I’m just very jaded when it comes to humans.

I mean, I bought a used lower mileage car with some mods when I should have bought a truck, so maybe this is just me reflecting on my own poor choices.

I'd agree with that if I knew my car started 100% of the time.

No, this is exactly the deal. Unless they’re getting divorced , or lost their job or something.

It's basically mine, but a few years newer. Same power, we both have R interior swaps, etc. I'd want to lower that price, but if I could get it lower... Yup. All over it. Insanely comfy, very fast, and while a lot breaks, most of it is easy to fix

Buy this one instead. Colorado car so should be / could be rust free.

Only thing better than a sleeper wagon is a sleeper turbo minivan.

It’s very possible that something is about to blow, or it’s possible that they’re just interested in acquiring a different project.

I have that problem, after I get the car working great, I tend to start day dreaming about the next car instead of whatever upgrades I have next on the list.

It is possible. I personally doubt it, but everything is possible.
