Never seen a stick version of one of these:

That S60 T5 M66 is one step down from the holy grail P2. That would be the V70 T5 M66... extremely rare, a true unicorn. I think that was only available for 2005 and maybe 2006, and there were very, very few made. I want to say less than 30.

The guy selling that would know. He is a Volvo mechanic at the local dealer I used to work with. He also runs a 97 850 AWD wagon which only came with a stick shift.

I was going to add a link to a 2005 S60R with 6 speed manual but it was provisionally sold. Body was in great shape but needed the 4-C suspension replaced as well as the steering rack and probably other stuff. It was up for $2500 CDN and about 130,000 miles.

Or maybe they used mineral spirits, lots and lots and lots of them, rather than turpentine.

If you right-click on it and select Open in New Tab it's then just the photo... in a new tab. From there you can right-click and save it.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
