    haha 1439 being a smart ass to somebody and it backfired. lol. Damn Danny I think you crushed his ego, since he thinks he knows everything about every car ever made that is obscure or outside the norm.

    The fuck are you talking about, I said you know alot about them because not alot of people know about the bertone stuff.

    Yeah I'm an elitist. Exactly. Because I have a Mitsu now doesn't mean I haven't owned a ton of other makes and models including a few Volvos. 850 and 242 gt. In fact I know MOST of the Volvo people around here and went to the meets in my Nissans for a while after the 850.

    I remember the guy with the burgundy 740tic, I rode with him 3 years ago after a volvo meet at the Mall of Georgia and filmed him doing a burnout in a neighborhood in L-ville. He poured tolulene in his gas tank to make "race gas".

    But yeah good call.

    A white cabrio with black meshies.
    Anyways those volvos have giant front mounts, those things are the size of the radiator. Anyone seen a video of some europeans doing these 1/4 mile burnouts in a 700+ whp volvo? That car was badass.
