[s-cars] Volvo V70 R Wagon (NAC)

[John Karasaki]

Greg/Scott,

We have a 2006 s60r, the sedan version of the v70r. It's an auto and a shadow of the car as a driver than the same exact car with the 6 speed.

My understanding is there are no v70r manual trans cars in the US.

All the Volvo R cars of that vintage have the wrong offset OEM wheels and need spacers right away or the turning radius is like an f350 extended cab.

The Volvo is fun, but it sounds like the BMW is a better option.
