They're just not cool cars.

Most owners do v8 swaps, IE like GSWagon with his 350hp LT-4 wagon, another member on here had a 5.0 in his sedan. Not fast but quick enough.

I do kinda like the C30 that came out, mainly because it strayed away from the boxy-ness of "Volvo".

Re: Dope Status.

you know... those Passat CCs are really good looking cars, but I have a hard time looking at them through "Das Auto" glasses. They're too round and kind of generic to me. Love 'em or hate 'em, VWs are distinctive, those aren't.

32' Ford, Cosworth AWD, five-cylinder Volvo 850 T-5R 2.3L

It'll do 0 to 100 km/h (62.14 mph) in about 3.76 seconds and will cover 402 meters (1,318 feet, 2 feet shy of a quarter-mile) in 11.85 seconds at 196km/h (121.78 mph).
