Volvo Coupés

So peazs was asking me if Volvo coupé existed. The answer is a resounding "YES," and coincidentally, someone on Turbobricks posted this up. It's an old 780 Bertone with the front end and parts from a late-90s S90.



And if anybody sees a dead S90/960 around, I want its front clip bwahahhaah

s90 780 is back

Fine, fine, and while we're at it, we can't forget the 262 Bertone. But first, a P1800 concept for you:

I actually liked the older-gen C70, especially in that orange color they had.

More like a two door sedan than a coupe, but the 262c is one of my favourite designs ever

Wow, where'd you find that pic? SO clean! There's one of those parked on the south side of East 54th at Elliot. Tires have been flat on that thing for....over a decade? Doesn't look like it's been driven, nor capable of being driven. Who wants to chip in and make a project out of it? hahahhah j/k

The P1800 is a beaut, sort of reminds of the old school Aston Martins.

Heh. I was this close to buying one a few weeks back before picking up the Accord. They're really nice cars, especially for a Volvo.

But I'd love to pick up a P1800 at some point down the road.
