I have an option to trade in my 850 for a S80 non- turbo. I just need some options from any one of you they may have one already, maybe what you like and don't like about the car. Thanks in advance.

The test drive didn't go as well as I thought it would. The car is new and didn't perform like the 850, the ride was a little more forgiving but, it didn't out class the 850 at all.It had more technology but, IMO not the next level which is would I'd be looking for in another car. I'll wait for the M-5.

Are you crazy? that car is newer...so you can get a much better selling price...and i own a 2001 s80 t6...its awesome. it feels like a v8 caddy...so much power... but than again i dont know ur 850 so cant compare much

Yes it is a car to never come close to. The T6 is worse then an 01-02 automatic. Crappy motors and GM trannys...
Although idono about the new generation S80s...

haha ^^^ but yeah the 2011 S80 is a beautiful machine. I'm assuming you drove the 3.2l. They are scud buckets. pretty slow, but, it is a new volvo and it rides incredibly and id love one.

2007-2010 3.2'S Are very sluggish agreeable. But for the 2011 model Volvo made some significant changes to the 3.2 allowing more horsepower, better acceleration, and smoother shifting. Granted it no T6 or V8, It has become much better.

They still make Volvos?
"Property is the fruit of labor...property is desirable...is a positive good in the world. That some should be rich shows that others may become rich, and hence is just encouragement to industry and enterprise. Let not him who is houseless pull down the house of another; but let him labor diligently and build one for himself, thus by example assuring that his own shall be safe from violence when built." - Abe Lincoln

i hate the 3.2 engine. it's got this dead zone around 2k rpm when u'r mildly accelerating.. almost like how old vtec engines used to kick in at high rpms.. except the opposite. and it's an unrefined one too, considering the inline-6 configuration. too make matters worse, i got the 2010 detuned pzero cali version. it's not that efficient either. about the only thing good is it takes regular gas just fine.
i like everything else about my 2010 v70 r-design. just wish they provided the t6 versions like they do in england or europe.
