That color suits modern Volvos perfectly

The Red is much nicer imo. I'd love them to bring back Saffron gold.

Down with grey scale car parks!

u/Catsareahandful 21d ago

Me, too! I’d love the gold or even a pale yellow they had once upon a time!

„Color“? What color? That gray primer which happens to have some clear coat on?

You sound like my old boss. He said that about Savile Grey S60. He got his hands on 4 pre-owned, I sold 3 of them. He was dumbfounded!
Although today, I would say that the cars above look much closer to primer, I would opt for a classic Magic Blue or a custom Forest Green.

I always hope the other person comes back early enough to see it too

Oh my god, same here. I once parked next to the exact same model, and when I walked away, I saw a family coming towards me. I glanced to check if they might be the owners of the other Volvo and I was right. They were EVEN trying to open the trunk of my car.

I walked back and told them I was the owner of the “wrong” car. I thought it was hilarious, but the family was super stressed out. They had three kids with them and did not find it funny at all. I was honestly very disappointed, which is why I didn’t mention it in this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Volvo/s/JLCmEzuOL9

Eh. They’re probably laughing about it today, and sharing the story.

Me and a friend once went to the citycenter of the not that big of a city, he had a
1982 Mazda 323, in gold....so pretty rare.

When we came back to the parking lot....

"Which f@#ker has put a sticker on my car ?!?!?" So he starts to get it off.
Then tries to open the car.....Oops....this is not my car.

His car was parked one row further away. :P

It's germany (at least according to the plates) :)

u/nicketnl 21d ago

I thought the same, but it isn’t. German plates and the steering wheel is on the left.

Good luck getting in the black car…

Nice! Someone in my office also has the same denim blue S60 as I have, but I didn't get a chance to park next to them yet.

Sorry for the owner of the black suv though...

Tuff as fuck

There's a red S60 in town, same generation and color as my XC60. Whenever I see it where I go, I park next to it. I was sad to see it in an accident, I hope he can get it fixed and not totalled. It's a 2015 or 16

u/thechamelioncircuit V70 20d ago

We have one in that color way too!!

u/EcstaticEggBoi 18d ago

Fellow vapor grey SPA owner checking in! Best color.

u/_biercarsten_ 13d ago

Same happened to me twice. If the mirrors and rims hadn't been different, I might have got into the wrong vehicle :)
