Two of the cars have the IPD cat back and stainless steel exhaust. They have a unique growl. When you’re winding through the gears, or heel and toe downshifting, a manual transmission with that growl, in the mountains, they can also be a lot of fun.
Yes. I have the full IPD package on our '06 R. I don't track it anymore (too old now), but it was a fun drive at Watkins Glen for a few years.
Those sorts of Volvos you sometimes need to be more careful about the fluids. But not so much on the OP's.
