Got a new car....

....and before you guys think I jumped ship...I haven't. I've decided to no longer use my car as a daily driver. First because it still isn't running yet....just haven't had the time to focus on it....and second....do you have any idea how comfortable it is when commuting being lowered on 35 series tires with the 18's on? lol

I bought my dad's car...it's a 97 Volvo 960 Sedan...black on black leather. May look boxy...but it's one of the last RWD volvo's. It's very confortable and a great daily driver.

Anyway....I'm still keeping the maxima. It's not worth it for me to sell. So I'll keep it as a toy I can tinker with and boost.

Too bad it's still not running, I'm glad I rode in it when I did! But the Volvo should be a nice reliable commuter.

cool man.
Dosen't it seem like yesterday we were talking about turbo charging the max's? Man what a kick in the ****. Glad to hear you got another ride. Also your right its much too hard to fix and drive these cars, its either one or the other.

Well the turbo part is still happening....I just need to fix the current problem first.

Oh yeah, the volvo can be fun in the rain. If I punch it, the 1st to 2nd shift, the rear of the car fishtails a little right. Don't get that on dry pavement....but that's because the car is so freaking heavy.
