Volvo V60 R-Design also 11-20% Jalop. Time for the wagon folks to unite and revolt! Who's with me?

Yep, Cleveland for sure as well. First time I heard the term "$30K Milli," I immediately thought of the meat markets on W6. Heavier on the leased/ CPO A4, though... CLE is a big Audi town.
2015 Bentleys scream "I've always been here." Autotrader 2006 Bentleys (as nice as they may be scream "I was an undrafted free-agent" or "Your dope has arrived."
Deny the anchovies at your own peril. Dice 'em into mush and add them to any sauce... I dare you to tell me it's not better for it.
Here in Cleveland, I've been pleased with the ethics of both local Volvo dealers/ service departments, though the "experience" isn't really up to "2014 near-luxury" levels. The Lexus dealer had a more comfortable waiting area in 2008. I know... first-world-problems.
Oh dear, they ruined near-perfect proportions. Only Jaguar with their long-wheelbase variants could ruin something so well.
USA don't buy tiny luxury, the C30 experiment proved that out... plus, the V60 is small as it is.
Dad should give it a second look... my 2010 V70 R-D and 2012 S60 R-D have been bullet-proof... too early to tell on my 2015 V60 R-D (just 3800 miles in).
If S90/ V90 are priced at E-Class levels as has been rumored, Volvo will be dead in the water in the US market. The name-cache just won't carry it, regardless of how spectacular the cars look or are.
Whoa... maybe a bit long in the tooth and maybe not the most curbside appealing, but this person built a pop-up penthouse for a fraction of the cost of a flash-graphic styrofoam box.
I hear you... I'm now on my fifth Volvo wagon over the past 18 years and am a bit dismayed how they've strayed from "the recipe"... efficiently packaged, sturdy, but with a touch of luxury. Granted, my V60 RD goes like stink and is all-day comfortable, but how did they manage to remove all of the utility to do it? …
Sorry, my comment wasn't intended as an insult. Work of art? No, not really... I'm not a fan of jacked-up wagon things. My V60 R-D is just fine as is. That said, I don't think the V60CC will be as tall as a RAV4, unlike the Outback. That, and the proportions are quite different.
Lest we get our knickers in a twist... the V60 sales figures are misleading in that V60s were barely available in the US prior to April 2014 (or so). That said, I get the gist of the article... anything crossover-butch out-sells anything "regular-sized."
Newsflash... out amongst the non-Jalops, nobody blinks for anything. Among the Jalop crowd, anyone who confuses a wagon (albeit jacked-up in this case) with a RAV-4 should hand their (virtual) card in.
Oh, green and gold is back? Time to start scarfing up some gold-trim 1996 Camrys.
Back in HS, a friend had (his parents') 745T in red... I vowed to someday have my own. 25 years and a '88 745GLE, '91 944SE, '84 245T, a '93 945T (red!), and a '10 V70 R-Design, our parking spots now hold a '12 S60 R-Design (hers) and a '15 V60 R-Design. Yep, I think I love Volvo.
If this is spec'd properly, my 2015 V60 RD is gone in a second. Of course, if Volvo offered a 325 HP AWD V70, I never would have traded my 2010 V70 RD for the V60.
