Never thought I would drive a Volvo. Those old boxy looking cars with underpowered engines. Met up with a Volvo sales rep, he told me about Volvo today. I tried an S80 T6. Always wanted an inline 6 with turbo on a BMW. Now I have 268 HP, inline 6 with twin turbos on a sleek looking Volvo S80 T6. Great power, wonderful handling, excellent build quality, love the car. Compared it to more expensive cars. Great car. Excellent car.

Volvo S-80 T6

3 months search ended with Volvo S-80 T6 (option: climate and xenon, no four C available in the area). Volvo was not even in my original list. I was looking at E class, 5 series, A6 (all 2004). Also compare it to 2004 acura tl, saab 95/93. None compare to volvo value (5k below MSRP with factory incentives - thanks Edmunds), comfort (most comfortable seat) and initial quality (check the finish especially around the trunk)

Disappointing quality

My S80 T6 spend the better part of its first 2 months in the shop dealing with a heavy vibration at high speeds and the eventual myriad of resulting rattles. This car did not impress upon me the quality one would expect for $46K. An inept service department and crooked dealer certainly didn't help resolve my ill feelings either. After four months of ownership, I am trading mine in (another reflection of Volvo's quality is reflected in its re- sale value). Watch out! If you are looking for an impressive machine, at least test drive a Saab 9- 5 Aero.

Satisfied with S80 T5

I ordered my S80 while in South Korea. I paid a total of $33,775 delivered to Honolulu, HI. It's Silver Metallic with Premium pkg, 17in Interceptors, Touring pkg, Fog lights. I ordered the heated front seats without the climate pkg. I did not want the headlight washers. They look silly to me.
