So ya, again, i dunno if this belongs here or in General Vehicles. What do you say mods? Volvo, Mazda, Jag, AM, Land Rover... I count em as fords. I'm interested in ford so i follow all the brands that they own, i saw we put em here.

anyways, i hadn't realized how sweet that s40 is. Check out this site: http://auto.eastday.com/epublish/gb/paper2...mg1255860_3.jpg

I love that shot of the video game, anybody know which game that is?
Its like an upscale mazda3, with distinctive styling and a 220hp or so turbo inline 5. And a crazy cool interior. Check out that floating control panel.





ya, that center console is free floating, like there's space behind it. check out the web site to get a closer look, its pretty cool. I dunno how practical that "storage space" behind it is though. maybe you could toss a crumpled up t-shirt there or something... it's still cool.

With the SVT Focus gone--this is a great replacement for a small preformance sedan from another part of the Ford family.

Volvo is owned by Ford, so I think its part of 'The Family".

The S40s are nice cars. A couple of years ago, I came very close to buying a T5R. Its a sleeper 4 door. Well sleeper in a way, it was riding on 35 series 17s.

nice! nothing like a car that is faster than it looks.

the v50's nice too:


The T5 is already pretty sweet on this car. Dual exhaust eh? how do you split the exhaust from 5 cylinders evenly across two pipes? It looks sweet anyways. What was the last factory volvo to have dual exhaust? I hope they do an R version of this car.
