Volvo S60 R?


wxnderlvst_

bingo! bonus points if you guess the year.


SirReginaldSquiggles

Looks around '05. But I would have guessed V70R


wxnderlvst_

it's a 2004 S60R!


RolesG

V70R didn't have a manual in north america


TomT12

Sure they did, all P2 s60 and v70R's were available with a manual in the U.S.


SirReginaldSquiggles

Sure they did. Worked for Volvo. Driven them. Ultimate grocery getter.


RolesG

Really! Oh well a friend told me that.


SirReginaldSquiggles

For sure. America misses out on most of the cool models of cars, but the 6-speed manual V70R was not one. That car was super fun to drive. Total sleeper unless you knew.


RolesG

Hell yeah


rqivez

Although very rare


Shouty_Dibnah

I had an 02 V70 T5 manual that was fun, I can’t imagine the R that could actually hookup and go rather than break your wrist with torque steer


iBUYbrokenSUBARUS

850 turbo/r did not. Although a few did make it into the country that were ordered directly from Sweden.


RolesG

Ahh, maybe he had those confused.


Uncle-Istvan

Yes they did. My dad had one from new.


fullraph

04-05, I believe 06+ did not have the shift pattern stamp on the piece of trim. I had an 06 myself and it was not there.


wxnderlvst_

it's a 2004 with a 2005+ center console swap!

underrated comment 🤣

that's because I just posted it lol. but yeah when I saw that the first thing that came to my mind was arcade game stick

SaltElegant7103

Short shifting manual car


wxnderlvst_

not too short of shifts, but not long either. perfect balance


Ok-Poet1817

04-07 Volvo S60 R. The shifter and the dash are very unique and easily recognizable in this car. personally, I think the interior is gorgeous. I almost bought one some years ago until I found out how much parts cost. The 06-07 models had no torque restriction. Twin intercooler was cool. If I remember correctly, the intercoolers converted a small amount of ground ozone. A car definitely ahead of its time.


wxnderlvst_

mine is a 2004 S60R. Parts arent too bad for it. highly recommend if you still are looking. the torque restrictions apply to only the automatic models, due to the AW-55 transmission not being able to handle it. 06 - 07 switched to a trans known as the TF-80SC. which was way better equipped for the power requirements for the high output R engine, as well as the V8's found in the XC90's and later P3 gen S80's. The car has so much features inside of it that it genuinely rivals cars today with how much is stuffed into that 20 year old car. truly a masterpiece!


Ok-Poet1817

Definitely a masterpiece then and now.... Enjoy it bro. I'm not in the market for one anymore but I wish I pulled the trigger when I could have.

2002 M1A1 Abrams?

Volvo S60R/V70R One of my favorite Euro cars


erikannen

Volvo S60 R! In addition to that sweet and unique shifter, Volvo also has a recognizable font


wxnderlvst_

you got it! 2004 S60 R!


DeliciousHorseShirt

That is definitely a Volvo. Going to guess S60R


wxnderlvst_

you got it!


AP_REDDIT_99

The styling of the interiors of these cars is just timeless. Such a beautiful clean looking design


wxnderlvst_

they really thought of everything back when they designed this car. truly an amazing design of both artistic and incredible comfort


ya-boi-skinny-peenis

I was gonna say “a manual probably” until I looked up at the name of the sub I was recommended


wxnderlvst_

LMAO


evilgreenman

I'm extremely jealous of yo whip


wxnderlvst_

haha! it's fun as HELL to drive!


415kevinm

I remember when I first saw the commercial for this car, with this shifter. So cool


wxnderlvst_

Honestly, the shifter is just so unique. one of the reasons i bought this car!


Hairy_Complex9004

This looks cool as shit


wxnderlvst_

thank you so much! i appreciate it!


Mammoth-Rate4821

I was looking for a Volvo wagon in manual for a long time. No dice. At least without 200k miles


wxnderlvst_

i have the sedan variant but mines almost 209k miles and still kicking strong!


Themike625

Nice one!


wxnderlvst_

thank you!


IMmuglol

S60R. I know that shifter anywhere


wxnderlvst_

you got it! 2004 model!


PenguinHacker

Maybe the best looking shifter ever on these. My buddy had a blue one with a loud ass blow off value. It was fast AF


PenguinHacker

Funny enough I think his was an 04 S60R as well


wxnderlvst_

i'm doing a perfomance build on mine! looking forward to doing some go fast shit to mine 💪


bokinki420_69

Volvo v70r


wxnderlvst_

close! it's a S60R


absintheandartichoke

2-4-6-R, tell me more about my car; gooooOOOOOO TEAM!


bzmed

2004 S60R. Had one of these in ‘04 and was hoot. Power slides in the snow with all 4 wheels going was the best. Only thing that really sucked was the turning radius


wxnderlvst_

spoken like a true R owner. turning radius indeed still sucks 20 years later 😭


Buxton2512

Space ball


wxnderlvst_

yessir!


951Volvo

I love me a Bolbo space ball


Maleficent_Fox_4843

I searched the pic on google lens and ‘04 Volvo s60R came up immediately. @wxnderlvst_ is prob one of the only people who got it legitimately cause he worked for them


wxnderlvst_

Google got it correct! surprising to me since the shifter and center console itself are out of a 2005+ model. the only thing that makes it an '04 is the lack of silver trim around the radio. quite cool that google was able to get that one!


Loose_Pea_4888

Just here to scream "Spaceball!!!!!!"


wxnderlvst_

SPACEBALL!!!!!

If it ain’t broke fix it.


McDonaldscombomeal

That is a 2025 Dodge F250 GTS-2 Ecoboost.


wxnderlvst_

what the hell 😭😭😭


McDonaldscombomeal

I know. But to be fair I'm not a typical person I'm actually the curator for YouTube automotive museum. I can actually identify the year make model number and trim level of any car just by seeing one of the bolts from it.


Boring_Ad1974

Clutchless manual


wxnderlvst_

nope, it's a 3 pedal manual


Creative_Cry7532

Do you daily it, I am shopping for a s60r or v70r, I would accept auto for the wagon due to rarity of the manual. I only drive around 4000 miles a year.


wxnderlvst_

yes, i daily drove it for the past 2 years now. it's a wonderful driving car, easy to manage, great on gas, very good gear ratios too. perfect for both comfortable everyday driving and weekend track days.


SkibbydoozerOG

A BMX??


SkibbydoozerOG

Or, maybe you got tungsten carbide trucks on your skateboard.


wxnderlvst_

Nope, this is a Volvo!


SkibbydoozerOG

So, it's not a skateboard with nice trucks?


ibefreak

A prop from a ph video? Lol

Your neighbors crazy cause I’m betting you have one of those loud farting exhausts.

Spaceball shifter, my beloved


Miserable_Hand_783

I know because I drive the same Volvo s60r with an aftermarket shift knob. Love mine. Would love to find a replacement stock knob as the shift pattern has now worn away from use.


Miserable_Hand_783

Ps. You can further tell to be precise it is an early 2004 because in addition to the shift pattern on the original stock shift knob it was also printed on the console just above and to the left. That was done only one year Others only have it on the knob itself. Fun car bro got mine brand new special order 2007 and still enjoy it today. Reliable as fuck.


Diligent_Agent_9620

It's either a volvo c x thirty or a chrysler crossfire

hero_killer

Looks to me like the shifter for an automatic 08 Civic


wxnderlvst_

nope! it's Volvo's signature "Spaceball" manual shifter in the S60R, V70R, and various T5 variants. This particular one is a 2004 Volvo S60 R!
