The older gen ABS brakes are very rock hard. They are very different than the non-ABS units. Non-abs brakes exert pressure on the rotors proportional to force applied on the pedal. ABS units are slightly different. Someone else can explain it much better than I can.
I was involved in the tail end of some anti-lock brake class action defense for Volvo AB, among others. Although the ABS works well, the feel convinced many that the brakes were faulty. They were not faulty, just a different feel.
There is a pressure acumulator, under hood, drivers side. It has warnings plastered on it.
Good luck with your new car.
