Car Question

[Kristi]

Ok, I am looking to get a new car, a Volvo actually, but I don't know that much about them. I heard that you can only go to the dealerships for oil changes and any kind of work...is that true? I have no idea, its just what I heard.

Also, I am trying to decide between a 1999-2001 S80 or S40 - is one better than the other or any preferences....any advice you guys could give would be helpful!

Thanks in advance

[blacknightteg]

i thought you wanted a TL?

[drupason]

you can change the oil yourself

[trythefly]

lol

[Kristi]

i do want a tl - but i want a brand new 05 TL - and i can't afford one of those. i am looking to cut the cost of my car payment. i am going to sell the maxima, take the cash from that, pay off the rest of my loan and put that towards a new car. and then just pay what i have to pay on the rest of the car.

[DeutscheBAG!]

here's ya go

[trythefly]

:PUKE:

[Kristi]

that is horrible - yucky!

[eViLMunkey]

S60R..., Walker what did you do to your mom's car??!!!

[Eli]

[eViLMunkey]

At work.....

[quickdodge®]

You gonna mod it or leave it stock, too? Will this affect your status and postion in the EMCC circle? Later, QD.

[civic95]

My advice, get 04 TL with 10K miles, and save yourself about $5K.


Do you change your oil yourself anyway?

[collins]

mike, dont be a dork.

[collins]

Do you change your oil yourself anyway?

i'd be doin that ;)

that is a very good question michael..because if she mods it whe will exceed the maximum amount of mods to be in emcc??

[collins]

whats with you guys anyway? i hope you'r havin fun, cause u'r not really makin any sense.

[accented]

emcc?? is that like Master Of Ceremonies Club? does everyone have a microphone?

[quickdodge®]

that is a very good question michael..

Lolol. THAT was funny. So proper sounding. Your attention to detail is very much merited in that sentence. Simple, yet, not complex. Later, QD.

[Kristi]

Well, I probably won't be modding it for awhile. Right now I am just looking for something reliable and pretty.

No I won't be changing my oil -I'm a typical girl - I don't know how to change my oil, like James said - that is his job.

Oh and Alex, :jerkit: that was sooo gay!

[4dmin]

if you get an s40 get the new T5 model w/ stick... the older ones are really slow. and s80 vs. s40, i would buy s60R turbo, awd, stick ;)

i looked at s40's and 3 series bmw's... after driving both i still bought a 1.8t Golf over them ;)

[Kristi]

well i can't afford a new one. i am getting these cars for 10K - 11K so I am not getting a new one.

I can't drive a stick well, so I will be getting an auto plus I drive in so much traffic, i don't wanna stick.

it looks like it is going to be between a 2001 S40 or a 2000 S80

Well.... You're just weird like that, any way. lol

[Kristi]

[carrascopa]

I'm sorry guys i'm a faggot as bitch!!!!

Get a Honda, cheap reliable, and with the right stuff, can be pretty

[Chuckster]

i didnt know volvos were reliable

[quickdodge®]

Get a Honda, cheap reliable, and with the right stuff, can be pretty

Yeah. How can the other 1.73 billion people that have a Honda be wrong? Lolol. Later, QD.

[JoeCoolinATL]

get a used 850 T5 R
or S60 R awd

[speedminded]

...I heard that you can only go to the dealerships for oil changes and any kind of work...is that true? I have no idea, its just what I heard.
How would there ever be a volvo on the road if you could only go there for repair work? (or did i just read that wrong?)

I know someone that's a service manager at the Volvo. He's on here sometimes, black 240 with R34 suspension and a few other mods ;) he can probably find some really good deals...

[Brandon C]

Just To chime in as the Resident Car Sales Guy. I think you could get a great Volvo for around 10-11k but I would be sure that is something you really want.

I would stay away from a volvo. Shit is not cheap when it breaks.

Just keep Riding the maxima until it falls apart, save some cheese and then buy something hot.

Thanks in advanceStay away from the 99-2000 S80 they are horrible try and get an S60 Of some sort. If you can find one for a good price try and get a turbo model they hold up alot better over time.

[Cliff]

^^^listen to him he's not mikey volvo for nothing

[quickdodge®]

^^^ He's not "mikey volvo" anyway. He's BOOSTED S60R. Later, QD.

[Cliff]

They're cute....and Walker - we already talked about putting the diverter valve on there so I could hear that noise always. :D

[Kristi]

DITTO......

[rickgiblin]

there huge for the car, the only reason he did that was because the dealership told him that the biggest that he could fit on the jetta was 18's, well he put 20's on it and took it to the dealership just to shut the up about it

[Eli]

thats the most retarded reason ive ever heard, espcially since he bought such ugly bling rims

[Cliff]

if you're gonna in your face the dealership do it with hot rims....i bet he pulled up and was like "ha i prooved you wrong you said i couldn't fit 20's and look i did!"

dealer salesmen "yea, you suuuuuure showed us....man that is sooooo awesome....." <rolls eyes>

[quickdodge®]

20's?? I didn't know they were that big. That makes it even worse. I was talking about that chrome shit. Later, QD.

[Brett]

Thats the dumbest reason to put wheels on a car I have ever seen, so he worried that much about what a guy at a dealership said... Thats fuckin sad.

[rickgiblin]

hey it wasnt me some of my friends feal like they gotta prove something to others but i dont care about what others think about me, but he only paid 800 for rims and tires... if it was me i would have gotton some 18's
