T6 S80, The Perfect Car

2008 Volvo S80 T6 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6A)

This Volvo T6 S80 has to be, the best car I've ever owned. It is the perfect balance of performance, comfort, safety and handling, with decent fuel economy. I run it on regular unleaded gas and it's very fast. In fact, I haven't floored the gas pedal yet. It's good off the line and when passing. That was not true of the MB E350 that I test drove. When compared to the E350 and BMW 530, it's as good a car for about $15000 less. Try one, you'll buy it.
Great Car Value

This is a great car for the money. I like Volvos for the obvious reasons, but this car is fun to drive and very comfortable, but has excellent handling. This car is a great combination of function and fun. This car is the 3.2, but it runs great and has great performance even on regular gas. The mileage is at least good for a car this size. The traction control is fantastic and really don't see the need for AWD. I live outside of Boston, so we get a fair amount of snow and have been great in the snow and ice. This is a great family car.
Impressed so far...

First luxury car purchase and I am too pleased. The comfort of the seats and feel of a tank are definite positives on the road. 3-choice steering package a must...advanced option makes it like buttah!

Good year-end deal for current Volvo owner on '08 S70 w/Sports Package. Smart style/profile;Great alternative to BMW or Audi; A very comfortable/roomy sedan with a sports car feel. Love rear visibility (drop down rear headrests);Accessible controls;Many convenience features, e.g. auto-folding rv mirros, smart key, heated/cooled f/r seats; Runs on regular gas. Would not have chosen low profile tires-expensive, impacts turn radius and mileage.
Nice car but next time a turbo

I just purchased the 2008 3.2 S80 (I have had it for 48 hours); I like the look of the car interior and exterior. The car comes up short with the handling; it has a floaty feel to it and I live in Europe and have driven Audi's, Passats and Lancias. These car have great pick-up; this car does not; you learn a lot about a vehicle when taking a trip from Germany to Italy through the mountains at night. Overall I have to say it is a nice car but the suspension needs work; Turbo is necessary if you want to get that extra kick when you need it. Also, some features should come standard with the car, e.g. blue tooth, front and rear warning detection for parking.
