We don’t typically feature repainted cars on this site, because the technical focus is the factory tailors or the remasters. Still, every once in a while, a redone car comes along that captures our attention. This Volvo V90 in Porsche Black Olive seems to qualify.

When it comes to Volvo, we’re pretty sure they don’t have a factory tailor program. Back in the P2 S60R / V70R era, I’d inquired if one could deviate from their standard R colors wanting a simple white that would have still stood out from the few colors offered. The answer was that something like this was possible so long as the color was offered in Europe. Whether that still holds today I don’t know, but the V70R wasn’t offered in white in Europe either.

It’s safe to say that Europe also doesn’t offer Porsche paint colors. Even still, Porsche Black Olive is an excellent color that looks incredible on a Volvo V90. Beyond that, the listing says it was taken down to the shell with all panels and glass removed before the repaint. Photos of the whole process were taken and can be provided.

Inside, the owner added “Porsche tartan” plaid to the seats as well.

Worth noting, the car has some aftermarket parts on it including wheels, Maxton body kit and rear spoiler, an upgraded audio system and more. If you’re seeking bone stock or OEM condition then this may not be your car. That said, if you’re seeking a very unique long roof, we suspect you’ll be very interested in this one.
