Yo Nokiaman, that would be a nice upgrade to have, but dont hold your breath on it... They always come up with good stuff for SEMA, but when it comes down to it, there isn't a group large enough to make an impact and allow these aftermarket companies to produce such things.

don't worry, I wouldn't change my car for nothing at the moment...I was just saying that it's one nicely done S80

If volvo would have kept their R versions, this would be the perfect candidate for the S80R...

I really like the S60R, looks different from other euro car, too bad its a bit lack-luster in the performance department

Yeah, that is a quiet hot looking S80! I really like Volvos, so much that I got 2. Looking forward on getting an XC90 Sport next year

Volvo has not been boring since the original 850 T5-R debuted, followed by the S60R/V70R. I was hoping to see this Jeep SRT-8 killer go into production:

I've been a Volvo fan since I first bought my 95 850 Turbo. Now that my CL-S is gone, I'm driving a XC70. (I need to get the ECU upgrade!)
