V-70 AWD w/ manual tranny

Post by ERDSAV »

Hi all - Im a new user here - much more attuned to Audi's - but Im cancelling my order on a new Audi S4 and going for a Volvo V-70 AWD or CrossCountry.

Has anyone been able to do order a car somehow w/ manual tranny and get it to the states. I really an used to AWD, and do not want to risk the FWD in my areas (Northeast) winters. Thanks in-advance, and excuse any newbie mistakes I may have made.

I highly recommend the shiftronic transmission. It's fully automatic, however it lets you drop it into a manual mode where you change gears yourself. You should take it for a test drive.
