Why do Volvos have the wierd 'S' shaped tailpipe?

posted by  someone claiming to be Dharvey on  Sat Nov 23 17:11 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Seems to me the main question here is not where the tailpipe ends but why it has the extra curve in the middle.

Suppose you made a pipe that had a single large radius curve and terminated where the standard s-shape pipe does. What would be the difference?

Inquiring minds want to know.
