Default Greetings!

Ello, then. I'm Grey, a life-long volvo lover. I drove my good old increasingly beat-up but ever vigilant '92 white 740 wagon wince I was 15. I have recently upgraded to a 2001 c70 HT convertible, and look forward to input on this site.

My wagon is a bit of a famous car at my alma matter of Georgia Tech. With its ridiculous blue underlights and tendency to drag bowling *****, asphalt-skiiers, and shoot fireworks from the sunroof, infamous might be the better word.

My new shinity is, unfortunately, suburban silver and still singularly stock, but I'm working on that.

I'm getting it painted as we speak, roughly the color of this Acura RSX:

My vision for the future is something like this, with lowering, wheels, and performance upgrades:

(and definitely a better grill)

But for now, I love my babies just the way they are.



And, uh, any tips for managing volvo sibling rivalry will be greatly appreciated. >;Þ


So, yes, greetings, haldo, and good day, and I'm jazzed to be part of this community.


-Grey

Welcome to the forum, I wish you find it helpful & enjoyable.

Fireworks shooting out ofa car is interesting.

That RSX's (still called Integra in its home market) body colour is blue mica. I have painted my GT-R R34 with the same colour.
