Porche Cayenne watch out.

Reminds me, a friend of me has a V70R tuned to about 500hp.

[clawhammer]

Those are some nice Volvos. I would have never thought that you could get a body kit for a Volvo.

S60 Rs are the shit.

[Partizan]

Wow, volvo is getting more and more appealing.

Also, the S40 is starting to look more like a tuner car.
Evolve S40:

[RACER D12]

I wish they would start making them is RWD, do any of there sports cars come AWD?

[ZergSupremacist]

[RACER D12]

[Amish_kid]

yeah Cayenne Turbo watch out....i would guestimate that this beast goes 0-60 in low-4's and maybe high-3's..that would be soo killer for a SUV...espeically a damn Volvo

[BlackEclipse97]

Yes. No.

[JCCR]

i wonder whats gonna be the price tags for the S40?

[VAD0R]

You didn't know all the models pictured in there come with AWD? With the V50 and S40 being option between a choice of FWD.

Volvo makes great cars, people have tuned 850s to go seriously fast, like low 13s and even 10s on the 1/4. And even with FWD volvos such as the 850 R. Of course it is on the curves Volvo really shines and when I mean curves I mean curves on track, track, narrow or even dirt at times. But that comes with the responsibility of being a rival to Saab, at least the Saab of yesterday.
Is it just me or is Ford granting allot more freedom to Volvo than GM does to any of its foreign divisions.
