Ralph, have you driven the AWD wagon yet? Are you leaning toward the XC or
the standard V70 AWD? I'd be interested in your thoughts on this (private
email is probably appropriate <g>)

New Volvo sedan announced today, the S80. This car replaces the RWD S90
sedan. Turbocharged 5 and twin turbo 6 are available, the latter putting
out 272 horses. For now, it's listed with FWD only, but I'd expect that AWD
will be available RSN.

(RAC) Interestingly, one of the shots of the car on the Volvo website
reminds me a *lot* of the A8. (/RAC)
