Volvo Concept Coupe - modern day P1800

Moses7

Volvo has built something beautiful!

I think it is one of the best looking concept cars of this year.

looks very BMW at the front

That's not a bad looking car. I don't really see any previous Volvo in it, mind, less again any P1800.

Very BMW looking nose on the front, and I'm getting more than a hint of Aston Martin from the side shot - which really isn't a bad thing.

Actually, it's not very far off a heavily customised p1800.



I like it, but this concept does not look like a volvo.

Nice. Very like a two-door Jag XF??

It's nice, but it's a bit heavy in the waist for me.

Looks like an A5 to me.

I think it looks great. Would be interesting to see some other colours.

Saw the back-quarter of it and for some reason it said Mustang to me... seems I had a point:

I dunno.. looks like something out of Demolition Man I'd imagine the doors would be a nightmare in shopping centre car parks though!

Looks like the M4

Not bad, the only thing wrong with it is the Giant Volvo Badge at the front, Its a bit too big.

Henry Ford III

It's a very nice design indeed.

Concept cars should be banned. They only result in a massive let down 9 times out of 10 when an actual production car shows up.

I really like that though.

I like it.

All it needs now is a polestar t5/t6 non nom

Prepare to be disgusted (I was) then:

Here we are though, a coupe concept with obligatory reference to past glories (note, that here means P1800, not C30) that previews ... a forthcoming SUV. Yes, the Concept Coupe previews next year's all-new XC90, while showcasing Ingenlath's new design language intended to be rolled out across all new Volvos built on the firm's new Scalable Product Architecture.

Seriously like.

Very nice, looks like a good mix from other cars. Hopefully they won't change it too much.

Baby-Baby Aston Martin!

You beat me to saying Aston Martin

Not so much BMW directly maybe, but it's certainly far more aggressive looking than any Volvo before it. I feel it works really well.

All these new Fords, there'll be as many variations as VW soon :P:P

V Eight

Nice...........

I like it, but it's hardly a game changer, and comparing it to a P1800 is like comparing a modern MG with a classic MG.

Ick, modern MGs.

Ford?

Volvo have been Chinese for a few years now. Uncle Henry offloaded them, and things have been on the up since (except the discontinuation of the 5 Cylinder Diesels next year :mad:)
