Firstly, to the inevitable trolls that these threads attract: don't bother.

If you don't 'get' it then you probably never will so don't cheapen proceedings with bad insults.

On to the pics:

$2k's worth of 17x9.5 et0 rims that weigh 17lb on a rat-look 242 that is someone's drift toy.

Love it.

So what you really mean is 'No opinions that conflict with my own'.

In future please state this in your opening post and I'll promise to leave such threads alone. If you want a discussion about how it looks, fine, but you must be prepared to accept adverse comments and people who don't get it and you can't just brand these people trolls and hope they'll go away.

Nothing wrong with just having a thread of favourable comments but at least state this is what you want first.
 
So basicley bang some retro rims on an old rusty banger and its cool ? Damm wish someone could have told me this before :(

If you like it penski fair play but to be honest it looks like a pile of dog **** would only get a glance from me so i could have a good old laugh :p
 
Well thats a pile-o-dirt™.

Sorry it doesn't "do" anything for me, but even the rims are foul.

Drift toy = 200SX or something
old volvo = old volvo.
 
Vovlo???

Ah you either get it or you don't...

Most wont...

I guess the paint job will follow, but its performance over looks...

:eek:
 
Interestingly original, but I think that is all it has going for it looks wise. Under the bonnet may be different. Not saying much more until the wheels have been taken off it and someone has bothered to paint it. :)
 
lol @ the replies.

what power is it running? if it goes like **** off a shovel like it should then it'd be major fun :D
 
My parents had one of them Volvos about 10 years ago. It was **** even back then. I can't see what has changed? Ohhh yeah it has a load more rust and its now 'retro' :p

It's RWD, any car thats RWD is now automatically cool even if it was dire when new :p
 
If this is someones drift toy it's hardly going to be some knackered old scrap yard fodder, irrespective of what it looks. I'd have though that much was blatantly obvious? The side exit exhaust is hardly a subtle clue...

I don't even think drifting is worthy of being called motorsport, but I get it.

If you were strapped into the passenger seat of that car with some nutter throwing it sideways round a track in a poetic dance and it didn't make you grin insanely then there's something wrong!
 
MMM, rat look ? I thought I knew what rat look was, but that looks like an dodgy old car with replaced panels and nice wheels.. Does it go like stink?

A rat car IMO should be as original looking as possible, (every dent, bump scrape there to see, orginal panels), running gear is great condition. A kind of sleeper :D


These are some examples I found while looking: (yes I like aircooled Vee dubs)
