I bought a Volvo s60 T5 for the its safety rating, and it delivered. I was recently in a horrific car accident whilst driving this vehicle and my son and I were able to walk out of the car. The front end was completely smashed in. This car was so reliable, and it performed as if it came off the lot that day. The seats are hands down the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in. When Volvo says, "Volvo for Life," they aren't kidding. This car saved my life, and I will always choose Volvo. I cannot wait to get another one.

Bought this vehicle to fit this criteria, fuel efficient/fun to drive comfortable, stylish and moderately priced. I enjoy driving it, even if it is not super sporty, it is very comfortable, and gets good gas mileage. I got 31 hwy averaging about 70-75 on my latest 3000 road trip, around town I get about 25. I bought a 06, Special edition with all the bells and whistles to include nav, bi- zenon, ect., and paid 34. Beemer would have been 45, no contest if you ask me, and as far as the bmw, this handled ALMOST as good on my twisty road into work, and ALMOST as fast, but I like the interior better. If you need to pay for a name/image get the bmw, if you are past that get this.

This has been an awesome vehicle. It looks great and really moves. It really is a kick to drive. It may not be as refined as the BMW 3 series, but it is alot of fun and much less expensive. I got a great deal and I'm quite pleased.
After 11 years & 95K miles, it's still a good car

This has been a good car. I wanted something fast and safe mountain roads; and the T5 fits the bill. It's large, but handles curves well and has significant torque. The torque steer is pronounced though, and can be unnerving if you don't expect it. (Most front-wheel drive cars don't have torque steer because they don't have a much horse power as the T5 does.) There is ample room up front for large adults, but the back seat is only suitable for children. The cruise control and volume buttons are in a place on the wheel that is prone for accidental engagement. The seats are comfortable and it's been reliable compared to the German offerings. I will gladly sacrifice the better speed and handling of Mercedes, BMW and Audi for Volvo's better reliability. However, Volvo has been purchased by a Chinese company so the reliability of future models may differ. I've had some problems in 11 years though: the rubber trim around the windshield is VERY substandard. It's brittle, cracked, breaks off and now looks very bad. The turbo charge air hose bursts in the exact same place every 30k miles, disabling the car. The lumbar adjustment has broken, as has the power window, door handle. Not bad for a decade of use.

I considered and test drove the Lexus GS300, Acura Rl, the Infiniti G45 as well as the Volvo S80. Safety, price, reliability, driving fun, ease of handling, comfort, gas mileage, power and visibility were my criteria. The Volvo s60 beat all the others hands down.
