You couldnt have picked a worse picture to use as an example of this awesome car.  
That car looks terrible.

If you are looking for 4 doors, it has those. But, it has little to no legroom in the back.

Spend some time over on SwedeSpeed. [http://forums.swedespeed.com/zeroforum?id=51](http://forums.swedespeed.com/zeroforum?id=51)

If I recall, the 2004’s were a bit more problematic. Try looking for an '05+ if you can swing it.

I like the 05’s too because the trim is body color instead of black plastic. I forgot about the backseat being so small but i did get in and out of it no problem. Just not much room. I really like the 05’s in the charcoal color with tan interior.

it’s a much better car on paper compared to when driven. I’d take an S4 over this or obviously an M5 (for $10k more).

> The suspension is what’s really special. Volvo says it’s the most advanced active chassis on the market. A button on the dash allows three settings, Comfort, Sport and Advanced, which mostly address the shock stiffness and engine management. There is a distinct difference between the three settings, and each performs exactly as defined by the buttons. No more compromises with the ride of your high-performance car. You have a suspension that’s soft when you want it to be, and stiff when you need it to be. Up to 500 times a second, sensors measure things like longitudinal, lateral and vertical acceleration of the car relative to road conditions and driving actions, and use this information to constantly adjust the ride. But the real leap with this technology is that sensors from the suspension, wheels, throttle, steering and brakes all communicate with each other before the various instantaneous settings are determined, including stability and traction control."

Welcome to the mid 80s Volvo. Toyota and Nissan had 3 way adjustable electronic suspension in the 300zx and supra.
