That the reason I didn't buy 'em, wick. They would've looked cool on our Volvo kid-mobile. The blingin' hubcaps did!

Haha, I test drove an S60R - too many electronic nannies. Even worse than the AMGs. You can floor the throttle, but no matter how many buttons you push, if the computer doesn't want WOT, you're not getting WOT!

The Advanced mode was great, but it felt like it was just stiffening the ride with some extra-hard springs. Jarry, and so very not fluid. BMW and Mercedes, you have nothing to worry about.

It's also not worth the $46k Volvo wanted for it.

you know the sad thing about those ronal bears were....they actually were popular. i asked a tire rack rep a while back why they sold that crap, and he laughed... and said they were popular with sororities. granted, this was a while back, but i remember laughing when i heard that.
