(I just spent what would be about 4K worth of retail shop parts and work and it's now sitting on Keystone Volvo's showroom floor).
This really should go to a Volvo collector who can appreciate it and occasionally drive it on the weekend as she drives literally as new.
Hop in and drive it to CA or the PNW! No problems whatsoever, she drives like a dream!
I realize it's very expensive, please go find one like this one and find one that just had all the work listed just done.
If you want it to be quicker, I'll be happy to do a tune at my (wholesale) cost and also install ipd sway bars at cost. In the end if I decide to keep it, that's what I would do and perhaps an exhaust and just drive it occasionally...
