Yep, manual transmission, and I think the

Volvo manual transmission is really on the good side, although

sometimes I get problems fast shifting from 2nd to 3rd at high

revs, you have to be very precise with the clutch.

The car is running! in Germany and The Netherlands.

What I really like now is the absolute understatement of the car

and its simple, cool look compared to the power.

No spoiler (even not the "R"-type one on the back,), simple black

color, no special tires or rims (okay, the standard R-type ones with Z-type-tyres (allowed for speed more than 260 km/h),

that is really a look in comparison to those racecar-lookalikes.

If you are an expert, you can see the difference of course by the look of the frontspoiler and the aluminium inlays inside :-)
