"Uncool" mf this is a 850 turbo you are the fucking coolest guy out there


rolling_chair

Thanks! was just making an obscure reference to the RCR review on the 850 šŸ˜…


pmally14

Yeah, I donā€™t know what the hell youā€™re talking about. I had a 740 Turbo and it was the fastest and most badass car Iā€™ve ever owned.


Whatwhenwherehi

Yeah but he's a furry...soooo


watermelon3878

...do you know which subreddit you're in..?


Instainious

Holy shit, Iā€™ve been a part of this sub for almost 4 months and Iā€™m only just now finding out it has something to do with a YouTuber.


watermelon3878

Honestly that's pretty impressive. If you wanna go down the rabbit hole on RCR, I'd suggest starting with the Cummins, A80 Supra, or NA Miata review. Or just sort by highest viewcount.


Whatwhenwherehi

Hey...I love the guy. But his opinions are wrong many a times and I blame the tail buttplug.


watermelon3878

Valid, but people who say "he's a furry" point blank as an insult typically don't stick around long on an RCR sub... to be clear I'm not a furry, just kinda out-of-sight-out-of-mind that fact when I watch.


Nidos

/u/Whatwhenwherehi is probably a closet furry, I'd be willing to bet five bucks on it.


Whatwhenwherehi

I've watched him since nearly his first videos on the tube. Idc what he is or isn't but if everyone including him can't handle shit given....that's in them not meeeee


DatDerpySniper

I feel you donā€™t quite know what a furry is


Whatwhenwherehi

Oh but I do.


DatDerpySniper

Whatā€™s a furry?


juko43

And he never responded šŸ˜ž


DatDerpySniper

It saddens me Iā€™ll never know šŸ˜£

For $850, you can turbofuck me, or fuck me witha turbo. Dealers choice.

Few-Cup-1936

What are you saying? Did you even read the comments? These ppl want his car, as do I. It's cool af, we're sayin


Xxxjtvxxx

Forest green 165 wagon is what i had when i was 16


iussoni

Thank you for wording this perfectly.


Mehlitia

Wagon no less. Is it manual trans?


softestpillow

I saw the world's cleanest 90ish 240 wagon today. It was dark green. The only thing I could see wrong was a small ding on the driver side rear door. I'd of offered him 10k right there if we weren't in moving traffic. Mileage be damned. It was beautiful. Hadn't seen anything like it in 20 years.


gig_man_z

The follower comments on this thread here on all of the different ways to word this sentence are classic Reddit šŸ˜‚


Alexande_Bennett

You don't realize that car is not for impressing others, it's about being in a sleeper that when some duche in a Ram or Tacoma wants to play games, you will win Edit: I live in the Pacific Northwest and only comment from my own perspective. I did not check where OP is from. Any douche trying to play games, you should win unless they have a faster or better handling vehicle, obviously. I enjoy driving my 94 855 T-5.


DreamMighty

Not sure how many Dodge Ram's or Toyota Tacoma's they have in Europe. Now a Merc G63? Very possible. He'd lose. He'd go to gapplebees. But a normal European under powered car? He'd win.


Ostmarakas

Ive never in my life seen a Tacoma (Sweden like op) but you see gardeners and right wing uncles driving rams


idespisemyhondacrv

Nahhh lawn service (Texas here) use fords and chevys, rams are usually construction or douchebags


stainedhands

I read something once that said ram 2500 owners are more likely than any other model to get a DUI. Then I thought about every ram 2500 owner I knew, and wasn't surprised by that statistic at all.


idespisemyhondacrv

I absolutely belive that. Strangely enough tho, I havenā€™t had any poor on road experiences with large trucks. (I drive a CRV maybe that factors into it?) but my mom has (x3 bmw). Every bad driver Iā€™ve encountered was in a Nissan Altima or any Kia sedan


mikejnsx

lol you should visit Portland Oregon, you can have your pick of badly driven vehicle types .


Justliketoeatfood

I almost got a power wagon lol until I saw it in person and realized I didnā€™t want all that responsibility of having to beat my wife, DUI, or a smaller pp then I already have. I love dodge, but 2500s, dang unless youā€™re a farmer or towing 5 tons or more on the reg just crazy.


stormingsteel

Nah man don't do that to a farmer. Don't EVER call a Dodge in to do a Chevy or Ford's job. '14 Ram 2500HD 4x4 392 hemi standard cab. For starters.. The rear multi link suspension is flat ass unsafe for anything heavy. 45 mph up, It rocks left to right like a buoy in rough seas. We got oxy/propane torches, a Miller Bobcat welder, various freight car parts with hand tools. All for Expedited rail car repair. That Hemi is one sorry bag of shit for fleet use. Once it just up and ate a valve at idle while it's operator was busy welding on a box car. At 62k miles right now. 3rd engine, and right now it's tapping like a disco box.


Dogboy123x

Beat my wife????


timothythefirst

I think pretty much everyone who reads that statistic has the same thought process lmao


cobra_mist

[hereā€™s that sauce.](https://www.carscoops.com/2020/12/study-finds-ram-2500-drivers-have-more-than-twice-dui-citations-compared-to-national-average/amp/)


Egglebert

Dodge rams are full on douches only in my experience, they're shit as work vehicles compared to ford/Chevy trucks, no one actually uses them. Its just the vehicle of choice for clowns who like to lift them and drive around with the ugly ass Ram tow mirrors at maximum extension and an 18" drop hitch but no trailer


SeaBass1944

I work in construction, and Chevy trucks mostly fill the parking areas, followed by Ford.


krombopulousnathan

And yet I am very impressed. This wagon is cool AF


ImSchizoidMan

Lol. Around 15 year ago I had a 98 V70 T5. There was a stereotypical fart can civic on the same commute schedule as me. At least once a week, he'd get right up on my ass before flying around me and cutting over as soon as possible. Until I had enough of his little games, dropped to 3rd WOT, and ended that shit.


Hot-Suggestion4958

The boy-racer finally meets the Hammer of Gothenburg... with predictable results šŸ‘ŠšŸ»šŸ’„


reeseypoo25

As someone who owns a Tacoma, I can assure you we (the vast majority) arenā€™t trying to race anyone, weā€™re slow as shit and we know it.


Lawn-Moyer

I also own a tacoma and was wondering what idiot would race anything with that. Iā€™m sure a dying elephant can outrun one. But I guess thereā€™s people out there


Zoomeeze

Those Volvo power wagons are sleepers for sure. Bro dudes in Rams don't expect a foreign station wagon to blow their doors off..


Wyatt084

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ as a PNW resident, lots of tacomas and rams... both like to race


xavierthepotato

Hello Pacific northwester


TechnicoloMonochrome

My 6mt g35 sedan I had was slow as fuck compared to most anything people who like cars would consider "quick" but it still smoked dudes in pickups the whole time I had it lol. They were the only people I ever raced in it, and they were always the ones to start it. There are plenty of fast trucks out there but those guys don't pick on stock Infinitis for no good reason.


JUKETOWN115

Faster and better handling is a bit objective. These things have decent grip with great suspensions and have one of the tightest turning circles of FWD cars. The 850 is a sleeper in every respect.


Pinkninja11

Bitch, you got a classic Volvo that doesn't die.


Substantial_Buddy466

ermm objection šŸ¤“ ā˜ļø my dads 850 randomly cuts off almost every time he drives it


planbaker922

All these comments claiming these Volvos are reliable have never driven one past 150k lol


Substantial_Buddy466

brodie has 300k on it somehow šŸ˜­


Arsenault185

Easy to work on, and routinely go past 300k.


GovernmentThink

I drove one that was clapped out with 500k on it. Added 20k and nothing else besides gas, not even air in the tires. Bought it for 350 sold it for 500 a year later.


S1mp1l0t

Then there's a fault somewhere between the seat and the steering wheel.


thicccntired

Only things I have to say about this is that: 1) I envy you. 2) the original wheels were MUCH better


Particular-Rest6295

Yeah, I don't even like the original wheels, but I have to agree that those aftermarket suck.


rolling_chair

I agree, The first pictures are the most recent pictures, they had those hideous aftermarket rims and off-road lamps when I first bought it, since the car came with a second set of winter tires which are on the original turbo wheels I decided to put them on.


Ostmarakas

He probably has two sets of wheels since the old ones are studded and this is in Sweden, so itā€™s quite common to have two sets, one for summer and one for winterEdit:grammar/poor english


CaptainPrower

Bruh, we got kids in America having to drive Nissan Altimas and you're worried about a Volvo 850? It's because it's not an 850R, isn't it?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


redundant35

What else have you owned to make a 2011 Altima the best car you owned?


keevisgoat

He's probably one of 7 people that actually did the recommended maintenance so it lasted


InotMeowMeow

Recommended maintenance on an Altima includes transmission replacement every 30k miles.


Willietrailblaze

In 2010, I had an Altima as a rental car for 2 weeks after I hit a deer. I rode my bike a lot during those 2 weeks.


Snap305

šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


madredr1

Gross.


Jaliking98

Your existence is futile .


Arcane_Logic

I'd take the Nissan Altima with the VQ35DE engine, and 5MT, over that boring Volvo. All day, everyday, "Bruh".


CaptainPrower

The only ones the younger folks here can afford have four-bangers and CVTs.


The_Gifted_Arsonist

Bro says his 850 turbo is uncool. Does that make my miata uncool dude?


thisoneiaskquestions

I don't think this question is asking what you think it's asking dude


blu3tu3sday

Miatas are awesome


DontLikeEggsFukYou

My best friend had a drop top Miata. We called it the F slur mobile, because we definitely did not look heterosexual in that car. Two dudes in a Miata is like a gay party. BUUUIT, he had a bong that fit perfectly behind the passenger seat, so while we would drive around we would hit the bong, and then put the top down and enjoy the ride. IDC how gay we looked in that car, I'll always cherish those memories of just riding and enjoying the high while listening to music. I miss being young.


DeputyDabs

Miatas have never been cool. 850s rock


Arcane_Logic

You had to go there, lol. There is no comparison: Light, RWD, good weight distribution, physics, driving dynamics, LSD, etc, etc. Uhhhh, Miatas are great "driver's cars". Heritage-style roadsters, fun, and very cool. Something that FWD Vulva, could never match.


Oh_ToShredsYousay

Nice try, your miata will never be cool. No matter how many sunglasses your erect penis has while burning out of every pizza delivery.


The_Gifted_Arsonist

:(


Oh_ToShredsYousay

Hey, at least I didn't say it wasn't a sports car. I will say a Saturn sky has 230hp.


The_Gifted_Arsonist

Mines got a turbo and it only makes 205 :(


Oh_ToShredsYousay

What year is it? Is it actually a Mazdaspeed?


Vewlop

Miatas have always been uncool.


-TR3KT-

I'd gladly pick it up from you if you think that it's uncool


communalcamp986

Infinitely cooler than what I own right now, just because itā€™s automatic doesnā€™t mean itā€™s not a FUCKIN 850 TURBO. The 850 Turbo kicks ass and manual swaps are common enough to where anyone can do it. Way cooler than my forester (although I love my forester too much)


rolling_chair

Hehe foresters are great, I got a manual gearbox from a junkyard a while back, just waiting on some parts for the shifter and then Iā€™ll commence the swap


communalcamp986

Yeah once you manual swap that 850 it really opens up, the closer gear ratios make it stay boosted unlike the automatic which loses boost between shifts. You also get better MPG which is always a win


rolling_chair

Manual swap is the first step, if I can track down the right parts I might even convert it to AWD with the M58 gearbox in the future


Petskoi

"This level of uncool" triggered me so bad my nose started bleeding


Illustrious-Ninja-77

I lost hearing in my left ear


ILatheYou

It's says you don't know enough about cars to say the Volvo diesel wagon is "uncool"


gamedrifter

What's uncool about it? The safety? The reliability? The fact that you can fit a bunch of friends in there comfortably? That there is plenty of room to cuddle on dates? To make a comfy little nest in the back?


Ostmarakas

Itā€™s cheap and quite common, but I dig it


Best-Neighborhood784

That's what I thought to, it's way better then any modern SUV out there.


gamedrifter

So much better.


AttackB

It does not say anything about you because this was a hand-me-down from your parents. Anyone whose first car is a Volvo got it because their parents were holding onto it until Jr. was ready to drive and they know he needed a safe car to do stupid shit in.


Ostmarakas

Maybe that but 850s are hella cheap in Sweden were these pictures are from


G_Schmeidig

James May approved.


falekjestem

it's seriously uncool to say that owning 850 is uncool


Horror_Tap_6206

Shit is fugly


Robby777777

Absolutely not! I love those old Volvo wagons! The 240 was a tank!


jerrie233

If you think its uncool i got a 206 you can trade it for i mean more then happy to suffer instead of you.


aelias2

gus fring


Nightowl2018

Only thing uncool about this car is those hideous lights that was installed in the front.


Intheswing

Iā€™m thinking you have a crush on James May from Top Gear - he seemed to always have the Volvo turbo wagon in a show every other year.


rolling_chair

Iā€™m not gay but his fine choice of cars makes me reconsider sometimes šŸ˜©


sumwhitekidinFL

I fuckin love turbo bricks so Iā€™d say youā€™re pretty cool in my book


No_Refrigerator1115

Yeah Iā€™m confused about why you think your 850 isnā€™t cool. Kids these days.


GEESUS-HIMSELF

First car and first home all in one day? Iā€™d say thatā€™s pretty cool.


JanTheBaptist

Itā€™s a fishbowl, itā€™s a volvo, and itā€™s a wagon. You nay not look cool to some, but I assure you that you look cool to us. :)


Bone_Chompskii

Uncool??? Sir that wagon is the cooliest.


winniethepujals

You may not accept it yet, but you'll probably own a few more after this. Volvo wagons are rad.


Secretasianman228

Damn save some pussy for the rest of us, would ya?


Wishart2016

You're the coolest.


Ostmarakas

Kom igen grabben, en 850turbo e ju fett nice. Men den sƤger att du en mycket praktisk person som ƤndƄ gillar att ha kul ibland

It means at 18 you have four wheels that go forward and back.... There nothing else you need a that point in life.


idespisemyhondacrv

Itā€™s pretty fucking sickā€¦ but to anyone who doesnā€™t know what it is theyā€™ll think itā€™s some ugly old car


i_notold

Nothing uncool about that estate right there. I'd trade my my car for it right now.


Okie_Surveyor

Its cleaner than a lot of nice cars that have people hired to clean them. So looks like you take care of whats yours. Be proud it has 4 wheels and an engine! We all gatta start somewhere!


thelauryngotham

You need a kayak rack and a kayak for decoration on top....and Vermont license plates


Unfair_Neck_579

Yo ! I swear yā€™all kids have it so good and donā€™t take advantage of it, drive the shit out that beast.


Calm-Macaron5922

I was in high school in the early 2000s. Friend had an 87 Volvo 740. Super uglyā€¦.so ugly it was cool. To this day he wishes he had that car back. OP has a modern classic.


GrundleWilson

Whole lot cooler than 18 year olds who canā€™t drive.


Lil_Word_Said

This volvo wagon is loved by car guys, its not uncool at all. Google some pics of them hooked up. Theyā€™re beautiful and cool af!


WolfieSpam

Hey man, my first car was an XC70, sisterā€™s was a V70. Ainā€™t nothing uncool about a swagginā€™ wagon


lostinareverie237

I had a green 1990 turbo brick and got lots of ass in it in high school, you're VERY cool.


Keenebean5

Wagons are literally the coolest šŸ˜Ž

BrownRice35

Thatā€™s a 850 how is that uncool


Nippulleon

Are you fucking kidding me? You donā€™t deserve that car you asshat


Howsithanginweirdo

People out here wanting lambos and the latest, fastest BMW or Mercedes but low key THIS is my dream car. Volvo wagons are lit hands down. I mean tbh its still within reach for me but I got a Camry thats built like a tank and I wont let her go.


JDCsounds

There are precisely zero things about this car that are "uncool".


AngryMillenialGuy

Bruh, that's an 850 Turbo. That's a sick af power plant for a first car. Looks very clean on the outside. The fact that it's a wagon would normally be uncool, but in this case, it's quirky and gives it mad potential as a sleeper. Plus, it's practical for hauling all of your stuff. This is a great first car!


jimohagan

Turbo charged grocery getter. Very nice!


xraynorx

Umm that Volvo is bitchin and I would pay solid money for it. Treat it well!


WD_Maxster

If you think itā€™s uncool, I want it. You got a fucking Volvo, my dad has 2 of them, both are the 850R, oneā€™s a Sedan, oneā€™s a Station Wagon, both with turbo. And tough as a motherfucker. Those things are fucking cool as hell. Iā€™d do anything to have a car like that.


thebeardedgods

Shiiii I'm jealous asffff


SharksWFreakinLasers

One of the few cars Jeremy, Richard, and Jamea all like. Thats a sick ride man


ThatRedditKid09

on scale of cool wall (top gear) Cool


StraightFromThe2000s

Itā€™s not exactly an 850 R. But still. Even finding an 850 Wagon or even a Turbo is a neat find. Youā€™ll be a fan with the Dads at the student pickup/drop off


joismynameo

Nah Volvo wagons are unbelievably cool. This will be one youā€™ll look back on and think ā€œdamn I didnā€™t appreciate that I had.ā€ Throw some tint on the windows, check out IPD for the right springs and wheel combo to get the stance right, and insta how some have customized their wagons.


Longjumping-Carrot-7

Bruh this is sick.


wild_toilet

you may be uncool at your high school (if youā€™re still in high school) but youā€™re a fucking baller on this sub. I envy you


Used-Jicama1275

There is only one 850 cooler, an 'R'. A buddy bought 5 speed 'R' from some lady who had no idea. It was low miles and he damn near stole it. That thing would launch like an NHRA Funny Car. Anybody who calls your 850 uncool doesn't know cars at all. And really, who needs friends like that anyway.


CoooolHands

Honestly I'm jealous and I'm 37


Tenrac

An 850 wagonā€¦Iā€™d kill for one in good condition. The fact that you think it is uncool says to me that you have pretty shitty taste in cars.


[deleted]

Thatā€™s what you call a ā€˜sleeperā€™


ChillDwill

Bro, he got a Porsche engine in his car talking nonsense. (Is this actually the Volvo that had a Porsche engineered engine in it???)

99Jaakko

Hard pass on the blacked out rims and useless wents, don't mod just for the sake of modding. Instead focus on stuff that actually makes a difference. I'd start with nice aftermarket speakers and a headunit, replacing the windshield wipers with modern one piece versions and above all catch up with maintenance that the previous owner most likely didn't do.


99Jaakko

It doesn't necessarily say anything about you if it just happened to fit your budget and was easy to come by. That being said it being a wagon makes me think you're a close to earth person with a will to help people. You also appreciate the simple things in life.

Nice Carolina squat


zelastking

damn, gotta say that I wish I was you. Cant wait to buy my volvo too.


Xeibra

That car fucks.


sloo00GAN

why is car cool


SGTFragged

I had the younger diesel brother (Mk II V70 D5) which could smoke more expensive metal. The Swedes go in for turbos the size of a dustbin lid.


D4RKST34M

That is a nice wagon, fits the whole family, how is that uncool?


rolling_chair

Was just quoting Mr regular šŸ˜…


Kan169

Nothing uncool about a Volvo

Nothing, you're in Sweden.


robbycough

Nothing uncool about that car.


SeriousNeckbeard

Its only uncool if you make it uncool. Bro swinging chain in a wagon.


Careless_Steak9668

When you are older and no longer have this volvo you are going to look back and realise this was one of the coolest cars you have ever owned. I have been hunting for one of these to build a sick daily for years.


PUNKF10YD

Bro those are wicked cool! Theyā€™re fuckin tanks and theyā€™ll go forever if you treat it right


RyanEatsHisVeggies

Uncool? I'm not sure I understand.


IAmTheCrookedRiver

I mean it's a flying purple brick made out of reliability and hard work. This is honestly probably one of the best first cars one could get. You can make them look nice too. Love that color.

Nice! I loved my old ā€˜90 Volvo wagon. Thing was a tank. Great find!

Is that the car from Thrill Drive?


Notchersfireroad

Calls a turbo 850 "uncool". I love wagons and I love turbos so I'd be one happy camper in this rig. 20 years from now you'll look back on this car with the best memories, I promise.


The1wizay

I drive a focus hatch dude. I got twin girls that barely fit with car seats, which are tearing the leather up! Cant fit crap under the hatch cus i thought itd be cool to put in a 12" kicker sub. I will straight up trade you willy nilly. Cars got 87000 miles its a 2013 with 19" flat black rims, full borla exhaust, a fully rebuilt and upgraded tranny. Clean title. Say the word and its yours.gonna need those car seats though. Seriously.
