Especially the T8 - 400hp and 472lb/ft? YES PLEASE!
4 banger?
Hard pass.
Hyper 4-bangers are a Volvo tradition...
Yeah but that thing wasn't a giant boat like the V90 is.
I love the V90 but based on my experience in an S60 T6 I'm not a big fan of that drivetrain.
I also love the looks of the V90 and V60 but have the same reservations about the drivetrain, even though I haven't actually driven one. One comment that stuck out in reviews of the T8 is that it was the only vehicle that could exhibit oversteer and torque steer at the same time...lol. Might be kind of fun to experience but not sure it's something i could live with.
Today I took the old to way to work along the river and saw an RS6 Avant in the flesh for the first time. It looked a bit cartoonish to be honest with the oversized wheels and flared arches. Didn't help that it was chalk in colour. Regardless, I prefer the looks of the V90.
Also, saw three C8s while on the way this morning. They were all parked in different driveways along the way but I've also noticed a lot more around in general while driving around. I think I've seen one in every available colour too. They are already becoming commonplace. By comparison I've only seen two LC-500s in my travels.
Also, later on during my travels today I saw a Z3M Roadster, in Titanium Silver no less. It drove right in front of me as I was approaching a stop sign so I got a really good look as it drove by and made the turn at the nearby hwy onramp. First time I got wistful since i sold mine.
Still one of the best looking roadsters made imo. The M version looks so much better than the regular Z series.
