s40 is the smallest one and when its boosted can be quite quick, but the best nowadays is the s60 twin turbo. itll fly. an older 850R twin turbo is fun as well itll stick in the turns and when the turbos are wound out will stick you to your seat. we've had a bunch of volvos.

My friend has a black 2005 S40. Not a bad car, pretty damn pracical. Not really slow per-say, but I think the base model engine isn't really strong enough for the wieght in my eyes. Also it's an automatic... bleh.

A S40 is a Mazda3 underneath. Maybe that's why is a pretty decent car.Comment

Funny how no one brought up that the Volvo pictured is the expensive Evolve tuned version. You can't just buy one like that at your neighbourhood Volvo dealer.Comment

I would take one of these any day over the S40. The S40 is cool, but it's way too squashed and tall looking. It's very cartoonish.Originally posted by bmwmike
