rwhtide Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 friend of mine is in the market for a new car and loves the practicality, comfort, and look of my '02 s60 (n/a), but wants a smaller, faster car. hes been looking into the new s40 models and is really interested in the s40 2.5 T5. i dont know too much about how they drive or ride, but they seem like great cars. anyone have any advice on the matter? anyone taken one to a track? do they come in awd? are there a good number of aftermarket parts if my friend were to be interested in adding to the car? better or worse than an s60? i'd love to hear any and all reviews y'all may have on the s40's! if you have pics of your s40, post 'em!

In answer to your questions: Yes.(Sort of) Yes they do. Yes there are. it depends on taste honestly. I love the S40 T5, and with the M66 they can make an easy 300 HP that the R boasts with a couple basic bolt ons and a tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
