Coupe is NOT AWD. Great in snow despite this fact. Tunable up to around 300HP. there is a dearth of styling products out htere Especially tail light upgrades. Great sound system, but impossible to enhance or upgrade wiith custom amps, subwoofer, seperates etc..Dec 12, 2012

Sophisticated/classy car mounted with a strong and solid engine with a marvelous sound. When looking at building quality and quality of materials used I just feel that this car was build at a time where not only the cheapest soltions where chosen.
The car is not a driving machine like a BMW and the handling is actually quite poor due to a flexible chassis which is most likely caused by lack of a solid roof. Also the front brakes are not performing like modern cars which can be a problem because of a strong engine.Sep 01, 2011

This is the best car I have owned to date, but also a little scary, I know that this car could kill me if I did something stupid.
It may not be as fun as a Hot Hatch but as a big performance GT Coupe its a tough one to beat in my opinion, It looks fantastic and it has Volvos almost legendary safety and build quality.Feb 12, 2009
