Default Newbie Volvo Owner

Greetings from Atlanta, Georgia, USA. I recently purchased my very first Volvo (2011 S80) and I am loving it so far. I've never ridden in an automobile that is as comfortable as this one. I look forward to learning more about the brand from all of the veterans here.

Hej då

Welcome to the Forum. That looks like one of the best to me, from me, love me presents ever. Do you happen to have any interior pictures?

That is a sweet ride. Just out of interest how much are these new in the USA? Here in New Zealand they are a 100k!! too much for me...but hope to update the old S80 to a 2007 model soon.

Thanks gregonz. Wow! I wonder why they cost so much more there. This one listed for 45K but I got it for a little less than 40K.

I cant understand why there is so much of a price difference??? We only have 2 options available here the AWD V8 and the S80 T6 AWD R-Design
...it would be cheaper for me to import one from the US than buy one here with the dollar so low at the moment....except your steering wheel is on the wrong side.....lol. Anyway enjoy your new S80..
