Default 1st Time Volvo Owner
Hi.

My Subaru (we've owned FOUR) blew its engine last week, and I decided that instead of replacing it, I wanted a Volvo. I will ONLY drive a manual transmission (strange for a woman, I know), and found that the Volvo S60 no longer comes in automatic, so I purchased a used 2004 S60 R with all the bells and whistles last night. That thing is FAST!!!

I miss my Subaru, but have fallen in love with my Volvo!

They must have been what I’ve heard last night.....[8D]

I hope the blew up Subaru was not fed with sake.

Welcome to the forum,
