>The "niche market" where you fit in is most likely not sufficient enough for Volvo to consider on the V70, leaving this market to other less expensive models like the V40.

The 'R' is a "niche market". A safe, green, well-designed family car ought to be right up their alley. The V40 is too small for a family. I can afford the V70... I just want a practical interior material that will survive the life of the car without becoming a dirty rag... and without the moonroof. The vinyl interior in my '87 240 has faired much better than the cloth seats in my '99 V70.

>I'm 6 foot 2 and I have a sunroof in my 2001, the sunroof actually gives at least half inch more headroom. Whats different on the '04?

Headroom is there... but if you bump the headliner with your head (this happens), the moonroof frame does not give.
