I understand the whole 'need a change' concept! The pace I go through cars is ridiculous cause I seem to get bored so damn fast. Then no matter how nice of a car you have, it doesn't really matter. I got rid of my C63 AMG in less than 2 years to get the M3 just cause I felt like I got bored. It sucks and an extremely expensive hobby!

I couldn't live only having one or the other... lol



Enjoy the polestar! It's a great car... very easy to go fast in... handles amazing.

I just turned 8700 miles in mile, no problems at all. Also averages about 19mpg vs my M3's 15.

Put it in sport mode and punch it... watch people wonder where all that noise is coming from. Oh, and check out swedespeed.

Ha Ha. Great! Wish I had the money and room for both, plus my wife's wagon and the pickup for the airport. I really am enjoying the car and you're correct, put it is sport mode, the baffles open up and it gets loud.

Drove a K-PAX Street Volvo when I was looking. There is a loud car and really firm. Not as nice.

Thanks for the comments and the web site.

If Audi would just bring the RS6 Avant over here... yeah, I'd have one. I've had 4 S# Audis... two avants. Love em.

No manual for the Volvo, but put it in sport mode and it won't shift unless you tell it to. They did a pretty good job with it... the torque is really impressive.

The volvo is very easy to drive fast... just point it where you want it to go and mash the throttle. My kids really enjoy it too lol

Good choice, OP!

Good choice, OP!
Total of 265 coming to the U.S. Colors have been expanded to include Bright Silver, Ice White and the Polestar standards, Rebel Blue and Black. Thought about the silver, but decided on the Blue after I saw it in person.

Yeah, mine is #31/80... but of course they made another batch which I'm not super excited about. Was enjoying being exclusive. Oh well!

Enjoy the car! I'm really happy with mine.
