Have had this car for less than 2 weeks and already feel it is by far the best car I have ever owned. I traded in a POS 1998 BMW 740i (which i got killed on!) This car rides almost as smoothly as the beemer did, which I think says a lot considering that this is a front wheel drive vehicle. Both interior and exterior styling are incredible. Best of all you won't see a lot of these on the road unlike BMW. Thus, it gives one a feeling of being a little unique.

This is a great car! It's fast enough, limo quiet, safe and handles beautifully.

Poor quality

Vehicle is underpowered. The sheet- metal used is very poor. After one year car has many dents that can’t be explained. The roof has two that looks like the car is buckling. The smallest door bang turns out to be a large dent. The doorjambs can’t be quieted. The sunroof is noisy and grinding. I had upgraded interior wood installed by the dealer. Without the wood the interior looks bland. The front wheels have to be cleaned weekly due to the heavy brake dust. My wife loves the car. I on the other hand wouldn’t purchase another until the issues described we corrected. However, after 31K we have had no mechanical problems.

Volvo 2000 S80T6

Dissapointed . Rear stablizers replaced at 25000, front stablizers replaced at 49000. Electrical system bad. Light bulbs burned out often until they were replaced with heavy duty ones. I pull a small boat, because of the heavy duty light bulbs, the fuses blow as soon as the trailer is hooked up. The hitch and trailer connection were installed by the dealer. $1000 repair to the throttle assembly. Volvo replaced parts at no cost even though it was 52000 miles. I paid labor ($280). Volvo said no more free parts. It appears to need major repair every 20000 miles or less. The 2000 seems to have lost over half it values in less than two years.
