Just to organize this car and all I have done this year with it... I decided to share!
1998 Volvo V70 T5 Factory Manual M56H Nautic Blue 417 with Charcoal Interior and light grey pillars and headliner...
Purchased it in pretty rough shape in Philadelphia, February of 2013.
I am the third owner, and it has spent its entire life in the northeast.
It is certainly one of only a handful of factory Nautic T5M's

Plans:
Finish off the interior to an "R"
SC901/amp/dolby/ and add a sub/amp and grom unit
Silver Mirror Caps
EST cat back from the R on this once I go custom duals on the R
Maybe an MBC?
Some Maintenance to look into soon:
fuel filter
pcv
evap hoses
intercooler hoses
delete SAS
[hopefully all of that ^^^ will help my MPG's ]
It's certainly temporary, unlike my R... at most I see it as a fun/cheap track car someday after stripping the interior and a few mods, but for now its a decent, reliable, and fun DD that turns some heads too!
Thanks for looking!
