This has nothing on the A7 concept. Heh... this is a Ford anyway. Two words, or in Audi’s case, one: Fastback. This has nothing on the A7 concept. Heh… this is a Ford anyway.

I think they like to rock the boat and see if the public will like what they see or not. Sometimes apparently a concept lik the Peugoet 206 CC will be shown so thatcompany can lay claim to the idea. Mercedes beat Peugoet to the metal foling roof with he production SLK but thats another reason. I’m just studying transport design athe moment but concepts are like fashion design.

The prominent shoulder line is the Volvo trademark and that is definately here just all curvy now. Apparently Volvo designed this concept after the production car. The production car will have a more tinted roof like the E-class. I was in a Peugoet 407 SW and it didn't make a difference. It was so much nicer in the back cause it was so much brighter.

I'm gonna sit tight on my 99 S80 till this one hits the market. Saw previews from the Detroit Auto Show and if Volvo manages to keep the production version as close to the concept as possible, then I will most definitely be getting one of these.

Is it that companies 'know' the concepts cannot meet production abilities, or is it that the designers don't know the production limitations? If it's either or both of those, why? I love the design and hate volvo's. I wish it would look like that...

As far as the exterior design goes, I'll definitely stick with my (2004) version of the S60 (which is essentially the same as the 2008 pictured). I guess the tail looks decent though. I can't wait to see how they finalize this design. Maybe by 2010 I'll be looking for a new one, mine is only at 175,000 miles. I've got time.

This car is really ugly. With this turn in design this magnificent brand might just as well die. I dont care anymore. Seems like volvo got the same illness as Mercedes had...

I personally would be fine if Ford jettisoned Volvo to become more streamlined as a company. I’m not a fan of the proportions.
