I think it's pretty dope. Kudos for Volvo for their efforts to start making some exciting cars. The T5 series was cool, and now they step up with even more power in nicer bodies.

These Volvos are definitely on the "list" now :)

Do you mean the S60R??

Because there is the S80 T6 that has 268 hp for 46 g's and the S80 2.9 for 41 g's and that has 194 hp

I drove this car and was not impressed.. at least in its stock form.... all over the damn road...found the car way to ford like...

that is my $.02 cdn

Looks alright... I like the recent Volvo designs... they're really stepping it up. I've always liked Volvo.

I read a review in the Evo european mag and they say it's pretty damn good.

Clown, Smith Volvo has it. I sat in it. It's pretty nice, but then again it's gonna be a car that is wayyyyy underrated. No pimp factor at all.

If you compare the new S60R to the Volvo 850, you can see what ford's done

The two others in the driveway are a 2002 S80 and a 1998 V70

Mine has 500 000+km (the counter stopped long ago)
The V70 has 190 000km
and the S80 63 000km

They are very reliable and comfy cars, they just don't have the "brand name" that Mercedes or BMW have.

On last months European Car Mag. It featured a tuned Volvo that does 11.3 seconds in the quarter mile.

an aerodynamic masterpiece!

I'm inches away from trading my 4matic in for that. I was looking at the G35 SC, but the awd and 20 more horses is more my style.

i went to the dealership in stevens creek this weekend and they said if you see one in SLO GET IT caz is sooo rare and they only have 500 of them this year in the US

MAN i am SOOOOOOOO TEMPTED to sell both of my car and get it

but the thing is living in SLO will ruin the car since i have to drive up and down from SJ to SLO until i get a job in SJ which mean racking up miles like my w202

:( :rolleyes: :o
