Hi all,
Having a carribean blue 6M/T (stick with 18"wheels and brembos) I am admittedly biased- that said, remember a couple of other things about the volvo: it's a turbo motor, so there's still a little lag, I think I read the AWD system is biased toward the front until more rear is needed (changing dry weather dynamics), and one of the car mags also says that it's so computer controlled, it won't let you get into any trouble. Also, as others have said, the look of the infiniti coupe (especialy with those beautiful golden brembo calipers sticking out behind the 18" wheels) gets more stares than any Volvo will. I also had no traction problems in February (6M/T comes with limited slip as well) and I plan to get a set of snows for this winter. The only reason I would consider the Volvo is if I had to have 4 doors- That said, my wife plans on test driving one when her BMW 540i 6-speed lease is up next year. She wants the 4 doors!
