Good Value for the Money
I was apathetic about buying the XC90...too many of them on the road, until I saw the styling of the R-design package...definitely sets itself apart from the pack. The 5 year maintenance/wear and tear program and safety record was what ultimately sold me. Overall, very happy with the vehicle. Just wish it had better gas mileage. A few other minor annoyances like the brake pedal being too close to the gas pedal and the seats seem a bit narrow, but once you get used to these "quirks" they take a back seat to the overall value I think the vehicle offers.
Just can't win
Have a 2010 xc90 3.2. Really love the style, comfort and seemed like reliability. Owned it for 6 years. Garage kept. Always pampered, and now the rear differential bearing is wining. 71K miles. Owned lots of cars and never had issues with rear differentials. Except in my Land rover LR2 2010 which was replaced at 36K miles by dealer. The only reason I purchased a land rover is because it is fitted with same drive parts as my volvo. Ford parts, turned out to be a mistake. Can't win.

Great Value
Looked at ML350, Q5, MDX, RX350 and X5. This vehicle was head and shoulders above the ML350. Each of the others had its strong points; but my wife chose the XC90 because she liked it best (it had the best overall visibility). We've had it for almost 4 months now and have had absolutely no problems. The fuel mileage is lousy; but competitive with most of the others--14 in town and 21 on the road. It does use regular while the others require premium. The fact that the XC-90 is the least expensive of the bunch is real bonus.
Good but needs a overhaul
I got this car for my wife and we did the European delivery program which was amazing, I recommend it dearly, I've owned many volvos and this one is the best so far, the only problem I've had with it is the right middle pillar's plastic molding will rattle over jittery bumps and the materials in the interior are not up to date. but one thing if you get the 3.2 you probably will want AWD because it makes it drive much better and without it it's kinda slow
