DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE 960 1997 SEDAN AND S70 1998 SEDAN WHAT ARE THEY.

posted by  someone claiming to be rbennett on  Tue Jan 22 15:42 CST 2002 [RELATED]

The 960 was the last of the rear wheel drive Volvo's. They have a 6-cylinder engine. The 960 was Volvo's flagship and has lots of bells and whistles on it. The S70's are cool but are front wheel drive. They have a 5-cylinder engine. I personally detest FWD, because I hate torque steer. Especially when you give a FWD car lots of horse power. If the S70 is a turbo, expect more noticable torque steer. I really like the 960's. The six cylinder is very strong in it, and they are proving to hold up very well. The 960 will probably be a bit more luxorious than the S70. Hope this helps.
