I don't know if it makes me old school or just weird, but that's a little too "rounded" for my tastes... The new 90's however... I was in love at first sight. :lol:

My son and I were discussing this thread at breakfast, and truth be told, if you would hand me the keys to either the new Polestar V60 or the as-new yellow T5R...I just might take the yellow!

I am a huge V90 (original variety) fan, so this is very exciting news. But, of course, I buy my V90s with 200k miles plus on them, so I don't think I'll be buying a new V90 for about 15 years until some family is selling it.

I'd take the yellow. I'm a wagon guy, but the V60 is too curvy for me. The T5R is one of the best looking cars ever, if you ask me.
