I want another volvo...but i cant find it
I want a volvo 850 t5/r/turbo sedan with a manual transmission. Do they have these im the states, or do i have to go through the horrid task of a manual swap ?

Gotta manual swap...no such animal sold in the states.

You can always move up to a S70 T5M there are about 5 of them for sale right now

My buddy just snagged a T5M, S70, very nice. He use to let me drive. LOL got tired of crapping his pants. :)

The same.
I personally wouldn't do anything more than a stage 3, see www.iPdUSA.com. Anything more than that the car is not good for daily driving. Besides, you do want to keep your drivers license... don't you??? |

You know you could get an apt and a girl friend; that would kill some of that cash burning a hole in your pkt... :) |

Dude, I admire your enthusiasm, but would also really like to see you make it to 19, 20, and beyond. Building a stupid-fast car at your age is not the way to get there.

Bigger Intercooler. i am looking to blow about 5-$8,000. as i am 18, live with my parents, have a full time job, with nothing to spend my money on. and am leaving to join the Air Force next year.

I have a 98 V70 T5 MANUAL. Black wagon. It is believed that their were only 101 V70 T5 manuals were imported to the US. 16 of which are black, and of the 16 black cars, only 5 of them were the 1998 model year which was the last year of the throttle cable. Interested?
