I have already voiced complaints to Volvo regarding the design of the S40/60/80. They all look the same at 50 feet. Why buy an S80 when it looks like an S40? Is there only one designer in Sweden, and does he work part time? Should not the 'flagship' stand out from the crowd?

I agree, it is nice to have great creature comforts while sitting in a parking lot or I-80 between cities. But functionality first. Safety and reliability a close second. Give me a rear window that I can actually see out of, "A" pillars that aren't 6 inches wide, and larger rearview mirrors that negate the need for side proximity sensors. Backup cameras are nice, but a lower trunk line would help a lot more.
