Love It!
Shifts for automatic to manual smoothly, very intelligent car -- will adjust to multiple drivers to get the max mileage, air sensing is a God-send for those traveling near dairies, presently 23.4 combined gas mileage -- primarily city driving, responsive steering, corners well, does not have a small turning radius like my 245, on-call speaker in driver headrest,
s80
I always wanted Volvo due to the fact it is the safest car on the road. When I finally test drove it I was shocked at what a pleasure it was to drive as well. I would recommend this car to anyone.

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.
Volvo for life!
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.
