Well Volvo forgot how to build a luxury car...

Yeah, so it looks like they went from competing with BMW and Mercedes to what Toyota Camry and honduh? This is bogus. Why would I trade in my 1992 740 turbo wagon for some FWD that is more similar to a camry then a upper end european car. Sorry, this is a drunk rant. One Ninnkasi has put me over the top. But I do feel the same, Volvo has lost their mind.
