is it wrong...

for my friend to soupe up his volvo? at first when he started saying things and getting a couples things for it it wasnt a big deal. now its rediculous. heres his list of mods..

- autozone universal air intake
- aftermarket automatic shift ****
- autozone automatic pedals
- john deere floor mats (no clue)
- steering wheel cover

and hes also talked about getting rims. ive said a couple little things but its not getting through. its not ricey or anything but its just strange. people usually dont soupe up mid 90s volvo sedans.

lol that sounds interesting, although I did have a friend hook up his 94' 850, it was nice, basically made it look like the british touring car that was sweet but I cant imagine doing anything other than that to a volvo....

I had a 1992 Volvo 940 GLE before I got my 7th gen. I had rims, factory spoiler, tint, and blue bulbs... that was it. It was big heavy and slow, so it had to go. So I got something small, light (relatively), and slow!

Volvos can be fixed up. I met a guy with an 80s wagon turbo that upgraded it to about 350whp and he autocrosses it. Nice suspension and all, but your friend is headed in the wrong direction. Shopping at AutoZone for mods is bad.... very bad.

What year/model Volvo is it? The S40s and C70s are awesome. I'd rock one of those. But I'm gonna assume it's a crappy one...

Four door and boxy? Ok, you've narrowed it down to every Volvo ever made...
