So they'd wait and put new Intel chips in it to have it cost more than $499?

korra asks if it can 'air bend'

Will it bend? (also will it Blend, but mostly just will it bend)

I mean, it was pretty much a given that it would get an update this year. But worst-case, you could probably sell it for almost what you paid for it and put that money towards a new one.

That's your fault.

I will say this: the V60's xenon headlights are the best I've used on any vehicle. They bend with the steering wheel to light your path in the corners and are basically bright as daytime when you turn the high beams on. All headlights should be this good.

As an avowed Tesla fan, someone tell me why this isn't more of a competitor for the E class instead of the S class, in which case it really isn't that great a value.

Make it a wagon and let it depreciate 80% in five years and I'll buy a five year old one in a heartbeat!

Odd we have that as well.

I love my wife's TDI Sportwagen, but this is definitely going to be the replacement when the time comes. We wanted a Volvo wagon in the first place anyways.

It seems to have the makings of a brilliant sportswagon though, just needing some tweaks from Polestar: Germany's famed track testing magazine Sport Auto found the V60 T6 AWD Polestar to be 1.4 sec per lap faster than the Audi S4 Avant (and barely beat the 335i xDrive Touring by 0.6 sec) at Hockenheim! And not only…

But once you get past that, if it's even an issue for you at all, you learn to appreciate the V60 for what it offers. The little things are what make it great, like the phenomenal headlights, the huge, clearly marked gauges, the overall build quality, the quiet cabin, the great ride, and the button that pops the rear…

When we talk about the interior, we really need to talk about the seats; they are the pinnacle of human achievement. Not the Internet, not spaceflight, the V60's seats. They are cushy and soft and perfectly bolstered. When you sit in them, your troubles melt away.

My V60 T6 came in at $48,225. At that price I would have liked a few more safety features, especially the backup camera and a few other gizmos. But the V60 itself starts at about $35,000 for the four-cylinder front-wheel drive model, and overall I do consider the car a good value.

The sole wagon in Volvo's U.S. lineup can be had in three flavors: T4, which has a 2.0-liter turbo four with 240 horsepower and front-wheel drive; T5, which amazingly for a Volvo is not a five-cylinder but a more powerful version of the four that also gets you all-wheel drive; and the T6 R-Design, my car, which gets a…

I said it once and I'll say it again, I drooled when I saw this earlier this year.
