I have driven the old S60 2.0T and the most shocking part is that the FC is excellent for a big car! Light-turbo pressure really help this car to accelerate easy! The only thing it losses it is brand name & availability of spare parts... If Volvo is as famous as BMW or Merc, i think they will sale as hot cake also! Anyway their Volvo XC90 sales is quite a lot, i have seen a lot of XC90 driving around my area.. Hmm... Volvo actually is a good car to drive n own.

I like the plastics they use inside, feels expensive, which is why they took the trouble for extensive testing at the snowlands and deserts to ensure the car holds up under extreme conditions. Sadly, overshadowed by the BMWs and Mercs. Great car to look at, feels good inside.

For me, this latest S80 is an evolution from the S60R. Absolutely nice front grille to match the beautiful arched tail lamp. The matte wooden trip matches well with the aluminum strips. It's simply the best looking Volvo and the new D5 has 100Nm more torque than T5. Only stupid ppl will buy a new Merc C over S80. Agree, not much changes in ur naked eyes.
