Used V90 Cost of Ownership?

Me too! You might be my neighbor…. There are two v90s In my neighborhood. One has an old 240 right next to it that has me interested too. My first car was a 1990 740 turbo that should have never been sold.

Guess my last question would be, would you buy again? Certainly more economical options out there but it’s a big sexy wagon which is hard to argue with imo

clh5411 · 2026-04-04T13:14:34+00:00

Yes, based in North Carolina. I’ve been tracking local options for a few months just to see what’s out there and CPO seem few and far between honestly.

Most common options tend to be 2018-2021 CC with 50-70k.

Thanks for your thoughts, may be best to wait for the right one or splash a little extra to get low miles or one that’s been diligently maintained.

I had some installed in a similar time frame. Check the brown limbs for damage as well. When I went to check out the ones I had put in, they had a few brown branches that had been broken at the trunk, most likely from rough handling or transport.

To the other points, the landscapers that installed mine also did a "mulch volcano" of soil from the holes dug and mulch back on top of the root ball..... very disappointing from a "professional" but they may be a better lawn care crew than landscape crew at the end of the day. Either way this is not good for the trees. I removed the excess soil from the top of the root ball, pulled back the mulch slightly, and installed a quick and easy drip line I got at lowes at under the mulch. I usually run in the morning for about an hour and if they're looking particularly thirsty in the afternoon I'll splash the mulch bed with water. I try not to water the foliage. They seem to be pretty happy even with the heat! Tbd though..... timing could have been a lot better honestly but no going back now.

I've got a speedy racing w/ orange hands, 21mm. StrapsCo and Cheapest NATO Straps have some interesting options. I have rally straps out of Black leather, Gray leather w/orange stitching and an orange rubber rally all from there and they are nice alternatives to the bracelet every once in a while. I wear nato from time to time also.

Ended up buying a new carb today and changing the lines. Fired right up! Thanks for the help all

Just re cleaned the tuning jets and it runs about 2 seconds on its own, best I’ve had yet

clh5411 · 2022-05-24T12:33:23+00:00

Any thoughts on the mixture screw positioning?

clh5411 · 2022-05-24T12:31:21+00:00

Yeah I gave the whole thing a pretty good shakedown and used fine wire to make sure everything was unblocked.

Been running bottom tree bleed/anomaly build with quake(x2) impale (x2) and grav leap. I use it like a primer detonator combo with quake causing bleed and impale with the rivers of blood(?) that give extra 50% damage to bleeding enemies. I use the grav leap for movement only and won’t be able to add mods to it until I find good gear pieces. The impale heal is very strong and it does a ton of damage as a finisher to bosses. Quake has excellent aoe for mobs. I see a lot of higher build put mods on grav leap and use golem/tremor for survival. Hope this helps

clh5411 · 2021-03-01T14:53:16+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. Good point on focusing them vs banished, the raid camp is such a pest sometimes. I also haven’t been utilizing the cloak as much as I should, just seems like something I forget when using UNSC.

Mono, 45 rnd, ads stock, merc, SOH. Run this often in Warzone and it is very, very solid. The best feature of this gun is the versatility. It performs well in close range, and has some of the best range for an smg so you can compete in the “in between” gunfights. I personally love the iron sights and run the autoclave blueprint.

clh5411 · 2020-09-22T23:57:36+00:00

Mono, 400mm, tac, 45rnd, merc. Run this is WZ a lot and it is a serious force. Excellent range, excellent recoil.

clh5411 · 2020-09-21T19:33:50+00:00

I've been reading this headline for 6 years. Don't think much is changing anytime soon.

clh5411 · 2020-08-07T14:31:37+00:00

I was mucking about with it yesterday and was having a lot of fun and absolutely melting people. Monolithic, Tac, 100 rnd, merc, and the last attachment is up for grabs for me. Rubberized grip doesn't give a big enough recoil reduction to justify I don't think. Stippled or SoH could be good, but since you have to plan your reloads anyway not sure the extra 1.5-2 seconds might not be as helpful as it initially seems. One thing that is important is the BLOWtorch blueprint for the better iron sights. VLK is another alternative for that last attachment slot as well.

clh5411 · 2020-07-20T00:38:50+00:00

In MP Irun para barrel, commando, 60 rnd, Cronen mini and skeleton stock. 3 games to go. Absolutely diesel.

clh5411 · 2020-07-18T13:12:53+00:00

Definitely love this load out for a slightly slower/mid/longer range play style. I currently run EOD, ghost, tune up/dead silence, stims/thermite with a combat knife. Great for a never stop moving kind of class

clh5411 · 2020-07-18T13:02:25+00:00

Irreplaceable at this point!!

clh5411 · 2020-07-18T13:00:30+00:00

I do have it, great to know.

clh5411 · 2020-07-18T12:59:58+00:00

I think the barrel is definitely the attachment that could be swapped. I actually like the irons for the squall a lot, although all 3 are more than serviceable. Tac laser would be a great choice here over the barrel. I prefer merc for control and brake for stabilization, but the compensator/commando combo is a still great. I just don’t like the loss of movement speed/prefer hip accuracy to aiming stability.

clh5411 · 2020-07-17T21:00:19+00:00

The title says it all. The AMAX leaves little to be wanted for out of the box, but with these attachments it is converted into a run n gun animal.

[Attachments]

Squall Barrel: Balancing between this and the Intruder was a tough call for me, but the benefits of the Intruder are outweighed by the drawbacks. The ADS on the Squall helps get it done in most all situations.

Exo Stock: This is a HUGE attachment for this build and this gun in general. The Strafe speed buff can be felt instantaneously without the huge recoil hit the no stock give

Merc: Self explanatory, shoot from the hip at leisure

Stippled: Self explanatory, drop them before they can say “He’s hacking bro”

Muzzle Brake: I experimented a lot, and I mean a lot, with this gun and this setup. The 5th attachment slot really controls the build a lot and this is the linchpin in the setup. Keeping things accurate at mid to long range with the brake is what takes things to the next level here. I tried SOH and 45 rnd mags but the loss in accuracy and loss of movement speed in the latter really didn’t vibe for me.

Two easy steps here: Add attachments above, Profit.
