Polestar Volvos are sick. I love the color.

It seems Volvo may be interested in turning towards the performance market next time they redesign the cars. That's next year. Many rumours that they will sell cars similar to this as the new R models. This is what I speculate:
S60 Base - $25,000 S60 2.5T - $29,000 S60 T5 - $32,000 S60 T6 - $36,000 S60 R - $48,000 S60 RP - $60,000 That would be cool

That's a complicated trim lineup right there. Thats near what Ford's got now on the F-series lol.
Take a page from Camaro LS LT LTZ RS SS ZL1 The last two are the only ones that are much of anything special. SS has always been a GM moniker, as has RS. What's the RP stand for for Volvo? Never heard of it.
