Haha, I can relate on the topic of RWD Volvos and "cuteness". I love my 850, but get 240 envy often. My wife has all but killed that dream. The trouble is that a third car would be a wintertime car for her, so we can save the Mini Cooper (talk about cute car). The Mini has six airbags and all sorts of electronic driver aids, so she's reluctant to go to a "old" car like the 240. Can't say I blame her. My best bet is a '94-'95 945 at this point, but it'll probably be an 850 since they are so plentiful. At least she's not opposed to "utility" at this point. The next car will be a wagon for sure.
Enjoy your new car.
