Transcript
Excuse me, sir. What car do you drive? This is my 2021 Volvo v 60 Cross Country. And why do you love your car? I love how convenient it is. I also just love the aesthetic of it, how it looks. I think the body lines on these are just amazing. What have you done to this? So I have it on coilovers. I've done some wheels, subs, and some interior lighting. Would you recommend this car for someone that's looking for a wagon? Absolutely. Yes. Why would you say it's a good purchase? I think for the price, it looks amazing and it's super convenient, gets good gas mileage, and it's a beautiful car. How many miles a can no you get? Normally right around 30 to 35. Wow. Do you get rank compliments in this? Or mostly people just think it's a normal wagon. So it depends where I am really. If I'm just driving around normally, I get a few here and there, but when I'm around the car scene more, I get lots of compliments. And what wheels are these? So these are Audi style, rotors that I made... Got custom made for the Volvo. What'd you do for the suspension to lower it? So I'm on SF racing coilovers. So it has regular coilovers in the front that I have maxed out. And then in the rear, I had to remove a block under the leaf spring because it has a leaf spring better in the rear, and then it has an adjustable strut in the back to help adjust the height. So overall, you're happy with your purchase? Absolutely. Yes.
