My first Volvo, the best car I've ever owned. Solidly-built, very comfy ride, more comfy than sporty though. Makes great safe family car, but still gives you feeling of driving coupe. Definitely go for TURBO version, basic 2.4 seemed a bit sluggish, 2,4T moves.
not really a good value for the dough

very expensive. mediocre fit and finish. sport model will cost you in tires no matter how careful. noisy. uncomfortable driver's seating even with power adjustment. cramped. lots of plastic.blind spots.unimpressive for the money. dealership price gouging. running lights will also cost you in bulbs and they are a challenge to change.stereo is ok, not great.can't believe there is no homefinder garage door opening system. exterior dents easily. overall, i wouldn't recommend this car for the price. you can do better, for sure.
Wow . . .Great car!

The comfort, performance and handling are great. The driving experience is exhilarating. And in terms of safety, the car does live up to what it's cracked up to be. I was hit by a Ford Explorer going 55 mph on my left front; it rolled; obviously totaled. The Volvo, $14k to fix. The frame & wheel-well was not affected at all. It was unreal. The car was driveable. And being inside, I didn't see him coming (which was good) so all I heard was this crunching metal sound. I didn't feel anything. It was the equivalent of going over a rail-road track. Very strange. There was myself, front passenger and a child in the left- rear. No injuries.
Well-engineered, and most attractive car

I have driven my S60 2.4 w/5-spd auto for about 26k miles. This car is the most attractive in its class, and the price is not inflated compared with European rivals. Overall I am very impressed with the car, except for very minor problems (Lock buttons), which aren't mechanical. The car has excellent braking, and superb winter traction w/ STC and Winter mode). What I truly miss on the car is Stability control DSTC.
Quite the cruiser..

My wife and I enjoy road travel, and this car has shown us that it is capable of cruising for hours without breaking a sweat. You quickly realize the car just seems to eat up the pavement. We especially enjoy the comfort in knowing the safety features are there...just in case you may need them.
