As not to troll the previous FWD or RWD post, I figured I would post this for fun. Sadly it is all Saab and not Volvo, but I couldnt find any comparable Volvo videos.

The first is a long commercial (8 mins) that Saab did for their new (at the time) 9000 series with a cameo appeance by the 900 Turbo Covertible. It was done in 1988

The second is a more recent video with some new tricks, done in 2005 with Saab 9-3's.

Had to link them as my internet connection at work is too slow to upload them for easier viewing.

Of course these are professional drivers (Saab's Performance Team), but FWD is still quite capable...haha.

1988 Video

2005 Video

Enjoy :). Sadly when trying to find any comparable Volvo Performance videos, most of them tend to be Volvo Audio System Performance...haha. There are some car performance ones, but nothing on this scale that I have found yet.

Oh well, Volvo needs a team like that too :) They could even have a commercial tractor rig performance team.

I wanna see a Volvo VN780 riding on it's side tires and doing stunt 360s....lol.

If Saab can do it, so can Volvo :)
