Which performance car for R500k?

Sooo... I chickened out of a high-performance car and bought a 2017 Volvo V40 T4. 2.0 turbo instead, with decent acceleration of 0-100km/h in 6.9s. Pretty much the same as my outgoing 3.2L V6 Alfa 159 at 7.1s, but more economical and an auto geartronic gearbox.

Has all the bells and whistles... Keyless entry, blindspot monitoring, lane-keep assist, panoramic roof, sat-nav, front and rear PDC, heated seats, LED headlights, adaptive cruise control... the list goes on.

Nice, It seems newer Volvos are quite reliable, low cost of ownership?
Who makes the gearbox in this Volvo?
