I had a rental V70 in Germany a few months back and it was a great car to drive. Very comfortable and handled well, stable @ 120mph on the autobahn. This one would be a blast.

Thats the Autoshow car prototype.....sedan comes first, production version is much more conservative. These photos aren't new, have been posted here before I think.

I'm hearing 5.5-5.8 sec 0-60, not to mention the large rumor that its really putting out 320hp. I hope this car kicks ass and is priced right, might be something to consider.....especially if the new S4 turns out to be real pricey.

Yeah its a bit bright, thats why its optional.......its aniline leather (untreated). Regular leather will be available in normal colors.

Car is going to come with 17in wheels, 18s optional.....Pzeros standard with both sizes.
