Pros: distinctive styling, good to drive, stereo, gas mileage, power, GREAT seats, premium feel Cons: tight legroom on back seats, turning radius, firm suspension The Bottom Line: Not for everyone, but a well executed sedan.

A high point of a recent visit to NY was a week-long rental of a 2006 S60 2.5T FWD. I was 'upgraded' to a Town Car but saw that the rental place had some Volvo's. It was a no brainer to ask for one! Over the course of the week I drove the Volvo all ...

Pros: Great performance, sound, overall quality, Cons: Turn radius, sort of crowded back seat The Bottom Line: I really recommend this car out of any of the mid size sedans out on the market at all.
I bought this car January 06 brand new from a dealership in Beaverton,Or. To start of this is a well built car. I have had no problems with it at all, the gas mileage was not to good for a car the first 5000 miles. But after that I think the engine just ...
