The last pic is off the VOLVO website, I posted it up to show the opening behind the center console.
Automatic cause my fiancee can't drive a manual plus we've been looking into some late 60's restored 'fun for Chad' cars :) so we'll see with that. I've also looked into getting a sport bike but thinking twice about that.
For the record, the Volvo 2.4i is 'on par' with the Focus ST, 1/4 mile times are 0.1 seconds apart with the speeds the same, so this car does reasonably, for what I need it to, move....
Frost, planning to get that spoiler ASAP. The thing with Volvo's is that it takes a long time to get them over here. Right now, they can only bring in new 2007's and a dealer transfer (probably from Quebec) would run $1500 or so extra. Basically saying that Volvo is unique as the 'accessories' are rarely installed on this car by the factory. Most of the accessories, if not all, are 'dealer installed' so you actually order them later OR luck out and have a dealership pre-install the item before it his the lot.
So yeah, spoiler assuming sometime Late July, Early August. Planning to tint the back windows just slightly, around 40% or whatever, lighter then 35% just to add a bit of appearance factor. That will be about it for the next year until spring......
