women should not design cars...
...unless they are qualified AND talented, which is kinda a rare thing.

215-horsepower coupe that's easy to park, maintain and keep clean.
I guess It changes its own oil, pumps its on gas, remembers to put the gas cap back on, comes with built in fix-a-flat, has optional soccer decal, cleans its own brake dust off front tires, takes the purse off the hood of the car when switching from park to drive, and "has those big round flashy headlights" :rolleyes:
Women been designing cars for years... they're called Saturns.

Not referring to that car in particular.. but some of the new Volvos (like the S60R) are pretty damn nice!

volvos are great cars, ford hasnt had to much influence on them like they have jag, and there quality hasnt slipped at all, but i must say that looks like an old delorean redone, the doors the silver body(i know its not stainless) with black molding, it just reminds me of one, and wasnt a DMC powered by a volvo motor?

Yeah, it was acually a motor designed by both Peugeot and Volvo... and it was a total POS motor. Shitty ass V6, the DMC was a turd anyways.

Renault..... Peugot...... Volvo

EDIT: Plus doesnt Renault own most of the market share in Nissan, therefore making the engine in the DSM technically a Nissan???? :o

puegot and renault have come along way in their quality nowadays, but volvo has always been high on the totem(sp?) pole

I wouldnt really agree with that, Volvo used to be good quality. But I would say after the 850 its been all downhill, They have alot of problems and the quality is going down each year. I would take an older Volvo 240 in place of any new model. EVEN the S60 R.

who owns volvo, ford? if so, quality is BAD. some of the ford parts came from China. trust me on that cuz i build car parts for GM for a living.
