    For those who have met Nic and seen his previous 240 in person, you'll know that it was way different from all of the other cars out there in the scene today. It wasn't perfect but there was just something totally raw about it that everyone loved. Not to mention the fact that he was extremely low...and static. His new 240 coupe isnt any different. It still had the same raw feel that most cars fail to have. As I sat in the passenger seat, you could feel and hear the scraping of his subframe as we cruised around town looking for a shooting spot. As the car scraped we both would gasp from the harsh metal sound but at the same time couldn't help but to laugh at how crazy it was. It was just a fun car to be in. Nic himself is an awesome kid and I believe everyone should get a chance to meet him. He is on a whole other level and we definitely need more kids like him around the "scene".

    For this shoot, I decided to try out something different. Instead of just shooting a car rigged up or parked in front of something cool with blasts of strobes, I wanted to include the driver and his local town to create a "real image" and tell a story. I used only natural lighting to get a "real" feel to it.

                  Funny, a buddy of mine and I spotted and old "worse-for-wear" 240 like that yesterday and started talking about what it would look like slammed and on some diamomds.

                  Turns out its pretty damn good.

                          Even with the sparks like that, this Volvo will still run to 800,000 miles without blinking.

                          Awesome. The fender battle scars make it.

                            Awesome shots, wish I could have met him at SoWo.

                            We drove passed each other once...did the "OH SHIT THERE'S ANOTHER VOLVO HERE!?" look/wave...and that was it lol.

                            Looking good, Nick.
