How can you not like the sound of this V8?! Yeah, ya have to put an exhaust, but were talkin' the sound of the engine, not what effect the exhaust has on it...
Greatest sounding V8 ever in my opinion...
Got this lovely, boat sounding burble on idle but when ya open it up, it sounds like...
Well, its indescribable...

I never even knew Volvo had V8 sedan. Must be something sold almost exclusively in North America. Must be the same V8 that they use in V90 and the same that famously was used in Noble M600 supercars
I wonder if its transverse or longitudinal mounted.
