Doesn't Volvo offer an option for a turbo motor on all their cars?

Any word on if they'll offer the 2.5 turbo motor in a wagon? I like the sedan plenty but if I get another Subaru it's going to have to have some practicality.

Verdugo · 01-05-2004, 07:01 PM

Hmmmm I just might have found my next car

Any availability dates?

All signs point to yes. They've got wagons with the hood scoop on display at the NAIAS. Supposedly they'll be here this spring.

You can get your 2.5T goodness in the Wagon and Sedan GT's. I think March was the expected availability timeframe.

Hmmm, Turbo Forester or Turbo Legacy Wagon....that's a tough one.

Exactly. I think I'm leaning toward Forester and keep the BD GT.
