The V70R turn radius is comparable to a Montana class battleship.

Hm, I've never had any complaints about the wife's XC70's turn radius. Maybe they improved it.

I'm told it has to do with the Bembo brakes on the Rs. Other Volvos I've driven haven't not had that problems with their turning radiiusseesesae. Originally Posted by BmillsSkier

Your 9-5(06-08) like mine had most of the quirks worked out by then after 7 plus years of production of the same car. Total cost of ownership on those era 9-5's are comparable to most Japanese cars. That 9-3X with a V6 is next to impossible to support from lack of parts and service knowledge. They sold very few units globally . I saw one at a local shop waiting for a PS pump for almost a month. Somebody had to purchase a unit in Sweden to ship over. I wouldn't think twice about buying a well taken care of 9-5 from 2006-2008. Originally Posted by Skidog

The Panamera Turbo Wagon will lap the Nurburgring faster than a Carrera GT.

Saw that picture yesterday and came in my pants. If the rear seats fold flat so you can really use it as a 5 door wagon, that would be a dream car for this jong. Honestly can't afford those kinds of toys anymore, as I am focused on retiring in the next 4-5 years, but man I would love to own that car. Originally Posted by Beer Drinker

I imagine the Turbo will be in the 160 range, with the Turbo S being close to 200. But seriously... Do you really need a wagon that can track as fast as this...

Nicest car we have owned. As versatile as the 4runner it replaced, (minus off road capabilities) and way more comfortable.sigless.

My new 9-3 aerocombi xwd was a great car to drive, v6 turbo. It lived in the shop though. The starter was going bad and they flat didn't exist. I got rid of it the second the warranty ran out. And, warranty was covered even after Saab went out of business.
You should never ever be on a first name basis with the warranty manager.I rip the groomed on tele gear
