Hey guys,
My friend and I just went to Volvo showroom yesterday.
It seems that he is interested in buying the new S80 V8.
The engine is actually pretty good. The sales said that it goes 0-60mph in 6 seconds flat.
This timing is close with 545i and 550i.
What do you think guys?

I just went to the Volvo USA site and tried to configure an S80,
but couldn't find that option to make it look like the pic above.
I also browsed the gallery and still no luck. Do you know if that's
a special edition?

It's a HEICO tuned up model by the looks of it. Only a 315bhp upgrade on the T6 so not worrying competition for the big BMW's. Looks pretty cool for an Ovlov though.

Their V50 looks good as well. Besides the OP
pic above of the S80, this isn't bad either,
