I was watching the show Castle that I recorded on 05/11/09 and at 44 minutes into the show they showed a seen in the city and there was a yellow T5R on the side of the road. I backed it up several times and it was difinitely a yellow T5R. Wonder if the seen was on a set or really just happened to be on the road when they were filming?

 

That's pretty cool!!

 

Hurrah! A lot of people don't realize that they are seeing the only Yellow 850 that they will ever see when the actually see us driving by.

 

I put about 850 miles on mine this weekend going to DC and back to Columbus. I stopped at a gas station and a guy came up to me and said "That's not a factory color is it?". I went on and explained how rare the car and he told me his family was from Sweden and had owned Volvo's back in the 80's.

 

When I was at the dealer going at it with the parts guy about the mud flaps, he told me the problem was that I lowered the car with the Titans. I told him they were stock and he called me a liar. Then I showed him the tag in the gas filler door and he shook his head. He never seen a yellow one either.

Heck, I have driven nothing but Volvo's since '87 and never seen a Yellow 850 until I was shopping for the one I have.
