I hate to admit it, but the wife is probably gonna get her minivan, so the Volvo is up for sale.

'98 S70 T-5 with a charcoal exterior and black leather interior. The leather has the suede panels like the T-5R. It's got the premium OEM stereo with dolby surround (center speaker on top of the dash) and a 3-disk in-dash changer. Wood trim, moon roof, dual heated & power seats (3 memory settings on the driver's side), electronic econo/sport/winter transmission controls, and all the standard Volvo safety stuff top it off. It's got 65,000 miles and a transferrable 7yr/100,000 mile warranty. The interior is almost a perfect 10 and the exterior is probably about an 8.5 due to a few rock chips up front (thank you CDOT) and a couple typical mall door dings.

If you've ever driven a Volvo, you know they're one of the most comfortable cars made, and the T-5 option makes this think a real wolf in sheep's clothing (as a few local Audis).

Bottom line: asking $15,000.

Pictures available if you'd like to email me.

P.S. - I almost forgot. Once this thing sells, who wants to help build a sleeper Honda Odyssey?

Too bad its an auto. I can testify that those are quite fast however. Lots of torque.

Yeah, I know what you mean. It really takes some getting used to the turbo lag too. But don't mess with me once I'm rolling. The 60-120mph time is what's really fun. It gets nice and tight at speed too, just makes you want to go faster. It was still pulling hard at 140 the one time I actually took it up there. My drivers liscense started talking to me though and made me lift before I found the true top end.

. . . and she just wanted a family car.:D

You can't go from a T5 to a minivan! ;UgH: At least talk her into an XC90 if you really need the extra interior space.
