Volvo 740?
Yes, yes, yes and yes!
(Okay, technically none of those are Volvo 740s, but the 940 was just a small update of the 740 and the 960 was the same for the 760 which was a slightly more upmarket version of the 740, with the 4 and 6 standing for 4 and 6 cylinders in the 7 series, connection that got more tenuous with the 900 series as the 940 got 6 cylinder diesel engines and the 960 4cyl petrol ones).
Also, like Paul Newman I say extra yes to the 740 Turbo (especially in wagon trim!).
Tumblr media
To me, if a car has an analog clock, it is automatically cool. If it has an analog clock and a rev gauge, it's automatically very cool (for the unaware, analog clocks were often used to fill the rev gauge's spot if a car had versions too cheap to even include it). If it has an analog clock and a boost gauge, it's some real connoisseur shit.
Tumblr media
Hence, a 740 Turbo is a guaranteed lip bite whenever I stumble into a cheap one on Marketplace. Speaking of which, I remember it serving me an ad for a 740 hearse (not much different from the standard wagon, I must say) that tempted me a whole lot more than a 30+ year old hearse had any right to, especially considering it would've given even more character to my Rice 'n' Shine project (see fourth yes).

3248 De klassieker
Het is al weer enige tijd geleden dat Autoweek een onderzoekje deed naar welke de meest iconische Volvo aller tijden is. Nou, daar hoef je geen onderzoek voor te doen dacht ik nog, dat is vanzelfsprekend de Volvo 240 in al haar varianten, vanaf de 242 in de jaren zeventig tot aan de 240 Polar in 1993, het laatste jaar waarin deze Volvo geproduceerd werd. Opvolgers van de 240 waren de 740, de 940…

[Context: this comment in the Volvo post]
Tumblr media
here's the deets on the volvo. i had one of these but it was stock. it was also AWESOME.
Fuck, now I want THREE of these.
I don't see mention of an AWD conversion in the article tho, has he done it after thi- what is it? Oh, why I would want three. Yeah that's a fair question. So, well, I want one like that, obviously, and as for the remaining two, well: For one, I've had this project I nicknamed "Rice 'n' Shine". (Rice as in the automotive term for tacky, low-tier garb stapled onto a car to emulate cooler cars, which people claim to stem from the acronym "Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancements" because saying the term originated from this style being applied to Japanese cars sounds kinda racist dunnit.) A way to celebrate and showcase the creativity that can be found in the car world, to create a spectacle that lights up people's day and, hopefully, sparks someone's imagination. Basically, the core idea is going through the car's every component and go "what is the wildest, most absurd, most miles-out-of-left-field shit I have ever seen done with this component... and how can I outdo it?"
For example, the exhaust. Remember that crazy Subaru Vivio Bistro I posted at the end of the transfem cars post? (How's that for a sentence most people will not say, eh) Well, I've seen crazier. Because the bosozoku style keeps on giving, there would be too many pictures of crazy exhausts to show, but worthy for the longest time the title of most outlandish exhaust to ever grace my eyes has been held by this picture.
Tumblr media
Thus, here is a sketch from my ’17/’18 school diary of how I would do the exhaust on this Volvo.
Tumblr media
Of note are the transparent shapes on the lower half, which would be the bodykit. See, of course, the Volvo should have a bodykit, right, and of course it should be quite the outlandish thing. Yet again, bosozoku to the rescue.
Tumblr media
(And I've seen people more ignorant of bosozoku culture call bundle builds like these with "rice", but at this point the word kind of starts to lose its meaning. I mean, defining this years-long effort with the same word as the people who put whistles in their exhaust to pretend they have a turbo (real thing btw)? And also, it very much stretches "race inspired". I mean, fuck kinda racecars do you think the Japanese had?
Tumblr media
Hm. Fair enough.) But the idea there was, instead of having the exhaust stick out of the bodykit, to have it within the bodykit's width, and when it gets to the edge of the exhausts it just... stops, to only keep going when there's no exhaust again, creating all those shapes that stick out the fenders like horizontal scale skyscrapers. However, given the idea is to make it out of acrylic so its entire profile can look like these little side skirt accents...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
...it could just be inside the bodykit, as it would still be visible. However, I noticed literally as I was writing that I can't both have the exhaust not stick out from the bodykit and have it go over a rear wheel that sticks out as far as the bodykit does. So how's this for an idea: what if that one wheel just doesn't? What if that one wheel just stays narrow? After all, it's not like the Renault R4 didn't just fucking have one rear wheel further forward than the other.
Tumblr media
Because of course it's the French. And you know what? They're right! Why the fuck not? Nothing can be forbidden when you recognize no God. Trade nudes with your professor. Oh, and also, those little circles in the corner window are outward facing speakers, so you can do the whole "car plays music so loud I hear it very clearly from a distance away" without getting hearing damage. So those were three ideas out of the several dozens I have. I should probably make an MMMM-style list once I'm done with that.
Either way, the second idea is more performance-oriented, but do not take this to mean it's any bit more serious. See, as shown by this picture from the article, Volvo engine bays have tons of foolishly empty space that could be filled with more cylinders.
Tumblr media
I'm far from the first one to wise up to this, so much that you have multiple people who make mounts and bits for those ditching the stock engine in favor of an LS V8. But I don't want the 5.3L LS. I want a 4.0L V8 (like Toyota's 1UZ) to stick two turbos to and bring it to 600hp. Why specify specifications so specific, you may ask. Well, because 4.0L, eight cylinders split into two cylinder banks, two turbos and 600hp is exactly half the specs of the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport. So if I just put another identical engine in the trunk to power the rear wheels... Basically, this.
Tumblr media
Oh, actually, here is the best meme of this sort I've ever seen:
Tumblr media
It's not just the quality of the picture, it's that this is Caterham camera car (Caterha car?) is real...
Tumblr media
...and that this is not a meme, that is actually the car that filmed the Chiron video. Well, the 'lower speed' parts. The other one was another Bugatti. OBVIOUSLY.

EX30, small but Volvo!
Zapping The Blogauto MG ZS EV test It’s been a long time since the typical Volvo is no longer the cubic 940 or 850 station wagons powered by big 5 or 6 cylinders. The SUVs of the Swedish brand are now the bulk of volumes and Geely, the owner of Volvo has understood. In addition, electrification is underway in China or Europe and Volvo does not want to miss the boat. And the marketing to talk to…
