    Quite possible. I'm not sure if it reappeared in 1992 or 1990.
    It's not denial. I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

    I am going to go ahead and agree with you there. This thing is foul, it does not look like a Volvo at ALL.

    Shoulder pads, I don't know, but the 480 was one of the better looking small cars of the 80's. Not very sporty though, being underpowered and having lots of space for four adults. But it served well to make the upcoming 440 and later 460 more interesting for the buyers - the reason why it was published first of the series.
