There is one appropriate first thought when you see Volvo: Safety. It is not okay to think of Twilight and while we'll fully admit to hearting the boxy old wagons, thinking of those puts you in a rare group of somewhat nuts enthusiasts.
But now, thanks to Heico Sportiv, we see Volvo and we see sexy. The new S60 T6 is marketed by Volvo as the New Naughty, and sure, it's a smart looking sedan, but this 330-horsepower black beauty from Heico is something else. With a two-part front spoiler, rear 'diffuser-look' rear bumper, quad exhaust, carbon fiber inlays and 19-inch matte-black wheels it's enough to make even the Twihardiest forget about Edward Cullen.
Ok, maybe it won't replace a whiney vampire in the eyes of teen girls, but we dig the look. And that they did it on a Volvo and not an already hot E-Class or CTS makes it all the better.
No plans for a US release, but if you're on the other side of the pond, there are only 100 available for a price of 63,968 Euro.
More photos after the jump.

With that melted front nose nothing could sex up that car. Or any Volvo.

Now, this is a car that, to me, directly competes with a Subaru LegacyGT-- it even resembles the Legacy-- to me, again.
Three problems:
1. It will not be for sale in the US
2. It costs more than twice that of the LegacyGT.
3. I can't afford the Volvo.
And two non-problems:
1.. I can afford the LegacyGT.
2. The LegacyGT only comes with a 6 speed manual-- Hurray!

^^But this makes you realize that the Legacy could look a little more exciting, as great as it is.
