I don't like it because it's American, and the worst kind GM. Tongue

If you get a Spec B, it's probably only worth it to get an '06

The 07/08s arent numbered like the 06's were because they were limited production

If you're not going to do that, just get a GT and upgrade the few small differences.

I saw an S60R with some sort of exhaust this morning - it sounded really sweet.

I have nothing else to add.

sat in a new spec B last saturday while getting the RS inspected at Subaru of Gwinnett. gotta say...that thing would make a killer DD. really nice inside, all kinds of crazy ass gizmos, looks fantastic outside too. ample rear seat room. i sat in it and couldn't see why you wouldn't feel OK after covering 3 or 400 miles at at a time in it.

right next to it was a GT500 though, so i went over and drooled over that for the rest of the time Big Grin

RJ, you're screwed. They really do replicate when you pluck them. You better go ahead and see if Chan will sell you his cane for cheap.

agreed!

I've seen 3 or 4 of the new CL63s

now that thing has a glorious soundtrack

also - i read somewhere that Volvo was discontinuing the S60R, i guess having something that resembled gonads was just too much for Volvo

Every time I've looked I've had a hard time finding local used spec.Bs. By local I mean the 3 VA dealers and every state within 2 of VA on crazedlist.

I guess I could always test drive a new one and try ebay.
