In this video, I drive around and talk about my car.

A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

5 cylinder, why not just go up or down a cylinder?
And that was a good review

Or add three cylinders. Or add five cylinders! MOAR.

The I-5 configuration does make it smoother than a V6 and a little bit less poverty-sounding than an I4, but its not as awesome as an I6.

True. It sounds surprisingly good!

I wish Volvo stayed RWD (even more fun!), but it seems like the consensus these days for most manufacturers is that RWD=DIAF.
So what's the reliability/longevity of that particular engine like? (Didn't catch the mileage) I remember reading way back that the S80 was craptacular.

I loled when you starting cursing at the Prius. I do the same thing as soon as I come up on one: "f*** PRIUS!"

I enjoyed the video :dblthumb:

I DONT WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT.


I ordered some Continentals, taller - 45 instead of 40 profile - to hopefully smooth out the ride and keep the car from scraping the curb when I park.

Hilarious commentary on typical Volvo drivers:
http://www.blinman.com/volvos.htm
The psychology of the Volvo driver

Imagine a land where for 200 days of the year it’s dark, or snowing, or both. The citizens of this land regularly vote for government regulation of everything up to and including bedtime. A beer costs more than the fridge to put it in. The national sport is suicide.

Lack of commitment from the other contributor. I've joined up with another group of people to work on another site, but he wants to do a monthly online magazine format which isn't really compatible with the whole internet thingy. By the time 30 days passes by, it'll be nothing but reposts.
