I have always had respect for volvos they are so underestimated. I have driven a few at work and the performance is realy impresive. As long as it’s a turbo. Any turbo volvo engine is impresive the t5 or t6 anything that’s turbo from volvo is prety fast. Even the older volvos were fast I owned a 1990 volvo 740 turbo for 2 months, I got it for free I spend about $400-$500 to fixed it up and sold it for $2500.00 and that thing was awesome, I had no problems putting it side ways and I was shocked to see how much power and torque it had. Those cars are pure sleepers.
