BMWs handle waaaay better than Volvos. I feel that the 850 has a choppier ride and it doesn't corner as well as a 3 or 5 series BMW. Granted your 855 Turbo has great acceleration but the combination of handling and ride in a BMW cannot be beat. There were so many stupid things that went wrong with my 850 that I never had with my BMWs; ie Evaporator leak, console lights, fuel pump, microswitch, PNP switch. Now that I've spent a small fortune fixing these problems I don't want to give it up. Hopefully nothing else will go wrong.
