Plus a better 'butt job' here (I know volvo will hardly go for any 'nose job' in terms of how the car looks) is something worth considering.

Sporty. I can see the tail light on previous s80 when standing 45 degrees at front...tats why i call it coffin. But missing double clutch gearbox (SMG) Good……..its not a ‘coffin’ anymore. Sporty.

Also having seen the car in real life, it looks small and not as imposing, unlike the previous S80. The old T6 had torque steer to deal with driving the front wheels, AWD should help.

Wow.. this save spaces.. but the turbo must be very hot and large.. Anyways i support this engine compare to V8.. more better emission and easy torque at low rpm.. Hope the gearbox don't failed me.. Volvo transmission is not the best.. but they invented the smallest gearbox in the world to fit on his new 6-inline engine.. Hmm.. hope it's AWD is better to cover the torque.. Hope it can be my family car in my dreams... Haiz.. sure $$$... hopefully to see his future new XC90..
