[V8] All the makings for disaster (NAC)

I have the V70R and it's a barn burner. The R is the hopped up base car.
Gobs of power, handles the beast and stops like a Porsche.  You can crush 
distances in it too.

With AWD drive, a ton of space, comfy seats, cool R gauges and....tows the 
boat! http://twitpic.com/369qh0
This one is a 2006. The car is probably the most well thought out I've ever 
driven. .and works great.

My only complaint is what I feel - like a stretched FWD hatcback, kinda 
cheap like. But they did that for efficiency. It weighs around 3300 lbs.

After watching the V8 degrade and my brother's A8 follies I'm staying away 
from anything VAG. Want to keep the driveway/garage clean.
My wife is considering a GTI but a C30 is in the mix for that.
