RPSI: Seems to me after I got it and researched the VIN it came up and verified that. Why are you thinking it is something different? Pleas explain.

Because it's not a Platinum. Google Image search Platinum Volvo 850 and you'll see, it's not a platinum.

@tech,

You missed the dipstick handle with your blue paint.

LOL yes I did. But it is now broke anyways

@autoxray They are sport edition 17 inch wheels. They were discontinued from what I hear.

I think they were originally bought from tire rack.

@ Clean: Those wheels are sweet. They would look awsome darker.

never got a pic after hitting the trim with showroom new

paint isn't in the best condition, but considering that it was sitting in the alabama sun for 5 years before I got it and nothing was done to it in that time, it's in relatively good shape. the top coat peeling in a few places is because it wasn't prepped properly after the second accident it was in (before it was mine)

Note: special order - blue interior and blue paint. built in belgium

Did you do the entire bumper with ShowRoom New or just the drivers side?
