I loved my car until I started visiting the service center at the dealership every other month. I bought the car used - less than 2 years old, and was at Volvo 11 times before the warranty was up (yup, in less than 2 years). All electrical problems, many of them over and over again. From the amplifier to the windows/door locks to replaccing the motor in the roof. I finally sold it because I couldn't stand all the time it took to keep it working. The service center was great - Volvo headquarters on the other hand, couldn't be bothered even to acknowledge that I was trying to speak with them.

This car is surprisingly nimble for a convertable, but the cowl has a noticable shimmy when going over uneven surfaces. Had to replace the upper engine mount (some $60 in parts and my own labor) which really helped isloate the engine noise. The 60k service was a real killer (love those Volvo parts prices), but the biggest expense I had while owning this car was the electronic throttle body. It developed a dead spot right in the cruise position and would cause the computer to make the car surge ahead or slow down - as though it can't see the throttle and moves it wide open then completly closed. That cost me a cool 1k but the car drives much better now.

Overall this car hasn't great, the recall for the ECM/Throttle body is the biggest fault. Volvo basically just patched it, the throttle body WILL fail and has to be replaced. Not a cheap repair at the dealer, 1k just for the part, I ordered a new one from another company and replaced mine myself. The ABS control module failed, replaced it myself, the cooling fan went out, the heater/AC blower went out, heater core had to be replaced also. I bought this car when it had 20k on it and I drive almost entirely on the Interstate. The turning radius is awful, a friend has a V70 and it is also. Oh, and how could I forget, the convertible top, doesn't work anymore.
SWEET!!
