What the actual fuck is that rank-amateur garbage? There have been a zillion and a half attempts at redesigning the F40 by less seasoned individuals, and this one ranks among the worst I’ve ever seen.

The F50 is pretty much all function and still has a very well-resolved appearance, moreso than the road version of the F50.

Why does he look like a Denobulan? Or a human with 1/16th Klingon in him?

It’s going into craters on Earth’s moon; it doesn’t need to deal with mynocks and Titan space slugs, it needs to deal with giant insects. Some Raid projector nozzles, perhaps?

I imagine his reaction will sound like a reading of your username.

It’s always amazing to me how the tweaks made to the F50 GT completely transform the car.

I’m eagerly awaiting the RS e-tron GT version of this car. I’m planning on buying out my S3 and then saving so I can get one of those.

Being a member of the demographic most likely to buy this car, nope. Those capacitive buttons are traaaaaaash.

Yup. I suppose I should have used the correct future tense in my post, since I’m really talking about what they replace those Siemens motors with. It’s those current motors they are rather dissatisfied with.

I would bet that the producer of Volvo’s motor is a domestic Chinese manufacturer. I also wouldn’t be surprised if it is one that Geely has a stake in.

And the interior if I’m being honest. It’s a mess of chintzy shit, the Mk. 7.5 was nicer in build and presentation.

You don’t get snob scorn because nobody cares about them...because they don’t provide any reason to care about them. BMW and Audi are sport prestige brands, MB is that plus being the OG car manufacturer and the OG luxury brand. Volvo? They are safe...which mattered once but doesn’t anymore because they aren’t…

This means that dealers who agree to shell out the dough for new showrooms make more money off the cars they sell or are able to offer them at a cheaper price, undercutting noncompliant dealers.

It’s almost like they need something to transmit the power to the wheels at variable ratios, optimizing for top speed and energy economy.

But then you have to drive a modern Volvo.

I’m still mad that Audi went on-record saying they would bring over the 6-speed manual on the recently-departed S3 for the US market, and then doubling back on it and failing to deliver the goods.

If it makes life a little bit more difficult for the CCP, it’s worth it.

It is the gold speaker cones that adds the most to the interior’s visual ambience with the B&W system, and from 2021 they are now a black chrome. So that’s gone, boo-hiss.

You can try, but the Volvo will fight you the whole time.

There is already a flood of used Volvos for cheap. If you want an S60 in particular, there is even a flood of NEW Volvos for cheap.
