Finally got my new V70 5speedmanual I ordered, WOW! I feel like a diva, interior lights on a dimmer,like the opera is about to begin. Front wheel drive is nimble, the shiftin' action smooth and sweet, it reminds me of the Honda Prelude 5speedmanual I had in Japan, it had a sunroof too. I have been driving a 1987 240 5speedmanual that I also bought new, for 195K miles. I still love her terribly but have passed her on to my 16 year old son. I am worried about all the do dahs in this new V70, I have never had electric windows or trip computer, ABS, airbags, spin control, all the things that I guess everyone else has had and I didn't miss for the last ten years! How long will it last?
