Are 850's FWD or RWD? Nice car either way.

Yeah I was pretty sure that at some point in the early/mid 90's Volvo started making all their cars FWD. Course when did Ford take over Volvo, that might have something to do with it.

I know with the new S40's you can get AWD.

Volvo ended its RWD platform in 1998 with the V90/S90. Ford aquired Volvo in 1999.
