T6 With a Real 6!

I've owned my 2014 T6 Volvo for four years now - I just turned 56,000 and it still runs like new. Mine is Ice White - and I'm glad as I'm not a fan of the fancy metallic whites. My factory warranty included everything - including wear and tear items like windshield wipers and brake pads - which they kindly replaced at my request at 49,500 miles. I was treated like a king at every service appointment (Waukesha, WI dealer) and have not yet had one single reason to go in for any issue - scheduled maintenace is all I needed. My car has the 19" Bor wheels running P7 Pirelli Cinturato's and they are indeed good for all-seasons - and I live in Wisconsin. My only mistake was blowing over $2,000 on a set of snow tires with BBS wheels I bought from The Tire Rack. Great service from the company but I used them the first year for about a thousand miles and just never had a need to put them back on for snow as the P7's work great with the all-wheel drive - the biggest issue I've had is driving through snow deep enough that the front end was lower than the snow on the road but it still plowed right through! Great car in snow. Random comments as they cross my mind while I type....The navigation system is by far the worst I've ever used - it's only when you know where you're at that you realize the stupid thing is taking you out of the way. It's brutal. I suppose if I'm driving to Florida it would get the three Interstates right but for all else - pull out your cell phone and use Google Maps or Waze. Very roomy front seat - plenty of elbow-shoulder-leg room. The back seat is a place you'll not want to be if you're an adult and you better hope you don't have Jimmy-legs because you'll end up pulling your hair out. If you need a back seat on a regular basis-look elsewhere. I drove a Ford pickup as my main vehicle for 25 years before this and I love how handy and easy to park this thing is. Performance is outstanding - I love-love-love the sound of that inline 6 turbo coming out those dual exhausts and with the tire-wheel setup it is an excellent handler. If you see one of these for sale with decent mileage - grab one unless you're a fan of whiny overworked 4's. All in all - I love this car.

Shop around before you pay. Best value compare with the same "level" of european car. Compare to this price. You can get a BMW or MB but in term of safety to price and maintenance, this is my first choice. Very easy to replace air filter.

Not Really a Sedan

You may call this vehicle a sedan but after 2+ years with this vehicle it is better classified as a coupe. Sure it has 4 doors but the back seat is useless. The trunk isn't much better. At 12cu. ft. even a simple weekly trip to the grocery store requires items to be put in the back seat for the trip home. As for a road trip with more than 2 people just forget it. There is no way to put enough luggage in the trunk for anything more than a weekend and anything bigger than an infant in the back seat is a joke. Ironically, the only people that would fit in the back seat only make the lack of trunk space worse because they require even more stuff. Fuel economy on a vehicle of this size is awful. I owned a Accord before this vehicle and the mileage was on average 35% better for a vehicle that was bigger and older. The audio controls are confusing and lack simple functions. The Volvo system stores information some logical and some not so logical places. The resale value of this car has plummeted and I am not in a market where there are a number of these vehicles available so oversupply is not driving down the price. If we had not traded a paid in full vehicle against the purchase I would be upside down on the loan. We looked at other Volvo's to replace this one but found most suffer from the same lack of seating in the rear seats. If your going into this purchase thinking you are buying a sedan look elsewhere, if you wwant to pretend your buying a family car and really buying a sport coupe then this is a good vehicle for you.

Pros: Drives well, comfortable front seats. Cons: Tech features far behind competitors. Even in newer models the tech you get for the money is well behind other manufacturers. Small backseat. Ridiculously expensive maintenance. I should have bought a Honda Accord. Update: I traded in my S60 on an Accord. Much better tech. Much bigger backseat for the kids.

The dealer has made almost everything right... In the first 6 months they replaced -faulty door sensor (lft rear pass side) -faulty ignition pump- car failed to start on the first try when the gas gauge was at 1 bar ( I recorded the starting problem on my cell phone which was a big help in troubleshooting the problem). Sometimes the roof liner rattles- the dealer couldn't find the problem. The front tires wore unevenly at 20 k. I had the tires rotated (free) and paid $100 for a front end alignment because it was past the adjustment period. I have had a s80, xc70 , xc90 or, and a 2012 s60 fwd which was faster and more fuel efficient but squirrelly when accelerating on turns/curves and less refined car overall than the 2014 s60. I will try something else when this lease is up- maybe a Lexus. I like reliability.
