C70drvr Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I like it. I'd buy it ONLY if I could get it with a T6, AWD and a stick. Anything else, no thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBoy8 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 I like it also... but yeah, I hope it comes with lots of power, etc etc........ and I hope they price it right. None of this Bmw/Mercedes prices please ... if it's priced like those, I might as well just get one of them instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Che'_Moderator Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Looks very cool to me! Now, Volvo, don't screw it! Make 500hp+ sedan and people will start buying it! I will be first to sign-up! No you wouldn't. You are too cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboS60 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 The S60 was a sharp looking car but wtf just happened? :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HtownTurboBrick Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 The S60 was a sharp looking car but wtf just happened? Simple, based on sales numbers of current generation vehicles, the volvo designers based their ideas on the most popular selling platforms, and tried to make it their own. It's why the majority for european cars have more curvy japanese style lines then the strong lines we're used to. Benz and BMW have all become bubblier and not for the sake of aero I'm sure. They want to sell people what people want to buy and if camry is what sells, they're going to make it look like a camry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reasonable reason...but if thats the case, im pretty sure the average person looking for a Camry is not going to go for a Volvo. Overall, the design will probably grow on me like the XC60 is starting to...but the biggest complaint I have with it, like its been pointed out is it looks like a ripoff/copy of other cars. Even if you didnt like the cars that came after the S70/V70 you had to agree Volvo had cars with a design that was truly unique in the automotive world. This future S60 doesn't seem like it will have that uniqueness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

European cars became more bubbly to meet the crash test figures for pedestrians etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
