True but I think the STI is geared towards the racer and the Volvo for some luxury and performance. 0-60 5.4 sec for the Volvo, also 6 speed manual.

That was one of the most ignorant statements I have ever heard.

The Volvo s80 t6 will woop all over an e36 m3 stock for stock with its twin turbo engine putting 268hp compared to the e36 m3's 240hp....

So, what you're saying is that Mitsubishi is a wanna be IS300? Saab 95 is a wannabe sl 55 AMG?

Oh yeah let's see:
2 doors: Wait it has 4.
RWD: Wait isn't this AWD?
N/A: Nope it's turbo.

You're right it is a wannabe M3, what was I thinking for doubting you?
