Legacy Outback vs. Volvo XC

This is not related to the 89-94 Legacy, but quite interesting
anyway. I don't know how popular the Volvo XC is in the States, but
here in Northern Europe it's considered quite a car... anyway, check
the movie on this site, it's in swedish, but I'm sure you all get the
idea...

the subaru just wasted the XC, Volvo's all wheel drive system sucks, at least according to what I saw.

Legacy Outback vs. Volvo XC

That's a great video.

One of Volvo's main selling points has always been safety, which I'm sure if
you compared the two in crash tests etc. the XC would be the victor. If you
have a family and you are a really crappy driver, or live in a town full of
really crappy drivers; then go right ahead and buy a Volvo.

IMO, the majority of U.S. Volvo owners drive them because they have more $$
than brains and like to show everyone they do by driving cars like the XC.

Perhaps I'm jaded because I live on the same spit of land that Bill Gates
does and I used to drive by the Paul Allen estate every day on the way to
work. You would think I lived in Germany with all the Ferrari's and Lambo's
around here. It's really sick. Shame on me. :o)

Love my AWD!

Sam, I think you might find Ferraris and Lambos come from Italy, not Germany, although no doubt there would be many of these cars in the land of Oktoberfest. Perhaps more interesting would be to know whether in your travels past the Gates estate, you have ever had the opportunity to give one of these exotics a run with your Legacy!
