i was thinking of the cross country. well the s40 is fine but it's not the top class of the volvo brand. A volvo is still a volvo

are you getting a t4? if yes, then the volvo gets my vote. but i'd prefer a type-r accord to a t4.

yep, for prestige and class, choose the volvo!

it packs quite a punch with 170 hp @ 5,500 rpm and max torque of 177 ft./lbs. @ 1,800-5,000 rpm. great for daily driving because of the peak torque at the low-end rpm range.

yung euro spec accord ba parehong engine and specs sa acura tsx?

Default thanks guys!!

thanks guys for all the replies!!!! i am going for the volvo s40. was at the dealership today to make my order. hope i get my bank loan.

went for the s40 coz it will have diplomatic plates. i think that a european car suits more the image of a diplomat.

sana i get the bank loan.

btw, s40 SE lang yon. ok sana the s40 t4 pero mahal eh.
