This is my 1st Volvo. Went into the decision wanting German, but the value of the S60 in my mind was far greater than the BMW 5 series. Hated the IS300, liked the TL Type S but couldn't see paying $30+ for Japanese, and couldn't afford an A6 2.7T. The A6 was far and away my favorite, but $45K is a downpayment on a house, not a car!
Love this car to death

This is a perfect car! Whether for an adult or for a teenager. We bought our car new in 2002 and it currently has 211k miles on it and it's still going strong. It currently has gone through three batteries(live in midwest with plenty of snow), one transmission and no other issues. (these aren't true issues just general maintenance stuff when its driven by two teenagers and myself. It has plenty of power to push through the Colorado snow and has wonderful handling. Great interior design for 2002 and it has plenty of tech that rivals with simple 2017 cars like the Ford focus. Sweden did well with this car. (i don't remember the price for the car so i just guessed)

I had a Volvo S 60 AWD turbo from 2002 - 2006. The car had many unscheduled repair visits. I picked up the car on a Friday and I was already in need of repairs on Monday- rear windows did not work. The problems I had were mostly electrical. I found the front seats not particularly comfortable for the long haul and the back seats are not suitable for adults except in a pinch. Gas mileage was ok,mower was good, ride was good and the cabin was quite. Occasionally heard the turbo whine. Odd issue with the radio- I wear polarized sunglasses, and that washed out the radio display. I never had that problem before or since. AWD system was very effective.

Having previously owned a V6 Camry, this Volvo seems slightly under powered. But one gets use to the power curve very quickly. The Volvo seems to corner very well and I think the seats have something to do with the cornering feel. Gas mileage stays aroung 22mpg city and 28+ highway. There are many small features that once you become familiar with, help to make this model a pleasure to own & drive.......
