  Nice additio0n to the Volvo line-up - 2006 Volvo S60
  By Mike B - April 28 - 12:50 pm

  Was looking for a car for my wife that had safety, comfort, looks and speed. Also didnt want a common choice (Audi, Infinity, Acura, BMW) however we tested them all. The S60R was a real suprise in the interior department - VERY plush and comfortable. Back seat is for children only, though. Trunk is large, and doors are easy to enter/exit. Safety features are everywhere. Exterior is real sharp with sleek lines and sporty look. The fun part of this car is its speed and handling. High velocity going around a big bend in "advanced" is thrilling - tight with great control. Not the sweetest of sounds when under full throttle, but does grow on you. Brakes are teriffic.

  Couldnt be happier - 2006 Volvo S60
  By Jim - April 25 - 3:50 pm

  I have owned my S60 for three months, and have 2,400 miles on it. The car has performed perfectly, with no flaws mechanically or in its worksmanship. I enjoy the interior comfort, and the turbocharged engine, which really jumps when you punch the pedal. I get about 21 mpg in town, and 29 mpg on the open road. The car is agile on the road, feels firm, and gives a smooth ride. To me, its a much better car and value than competitors at Acura, BMW and Lexus.

  S60 Turbo, 2005 - 2006 Volvo S60
  By S60 - January 13 - 10:20 pm

  I was planing to buy a BMW 325i and had test drove it, but before buying it I test drove a S60 2.5T(Turbo). I loved this car. It had great power, all the goodies and by far a better deal. I bought it on the spot and would not change my decision.

  Best car I have ever owned. - 2006 Volvo S60
  By Pleased Volvo Owner - September 22 - 8:31 am

  I bought a Volvo s60 T5 for the its safety rating, and it delivered. I was recently in a horrific car accident whilst driving this vehicle and my son and I were able to walk out of the car. The front end was completely smashed in. This car was so reliable, and it performed as if it came off the lot that day. The seats are hands down the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in. When Volvo says, "Volvo for Life," they arent kidding. This car saved my life, and I will always choose Volvo. I cannot wait to get another one.

  Love It! - 2006 Volvo S60
  By GabbyGirl - August 31 - 5:13 am

  I absolutely love my car. As soon as I set foot in it, I knew it was meant for me. I stopped my search immediately. It drives wonderfully and I feel so safe in it. Also, the people at Volvo are so helpful and on top of it. From the dealership to the customer service phone line, they have impeccable service. Overall, I am extremely happy with my purchase of this car.

  fun vehicle - 2006 Volvo S60
  By bill - August 8 - 4:50 pm

  I am the owner of a 2006 volvo S60 It is truly a fun vehicle to drive. Those who think its slow and cumbersome should take the wheel and give it a good run for its money.. You will find that the 2.5T 5 cylinder engine and the auto transmisson will answer your every need. Be it speed to pass a car on a two lane hwy or just to feel the wind rushing by you

  By Fisher - June 5 - 8:43 pm

  Traded in my 01 XC70 with 80k miles (always ran perfectly) for a 06 S60R. I absolutely love this car. Handles amazingly well in the snow as well.

  So Far, So Good! - 2006 Volvo S60
  By beaner - April 22 - 3:03 pm

  We were looking for an AWD sedan to replace our 9 year old Honda Accord. We didnt care for Subaru at all. All the other AWD sedans we considered came equipped with low-profile wheel rims, which are big trouble on pothole- strewn roads & frost heaves. We had some concerns about Volvo reliability, having owned Hondas for 20 years, but after 28 months and 32k, this car has been a pleasure to own. The 5 cylinder, turbo-charged engine provides plenty of pep when we need it. We would buy another one in a heartbeat.

  S60 R - 2006 Volvo S60
  By SCMJ - March 18 - 4:56 am

  The S60 R is an outstanding car. I recommend this car to everybody. The best feature of this car is the active chassis setting. You really see the difference in handling on the different road types. The performance of the car is great. My transmission is auto, the manual trans take away one full sec from 0-60. The quality of the interior is excellent; you will see all the gizmos that the car has. The space of the back seats is very small. But if you have kids just buy a mini van. If you are going to buy a Volvo s60r I recommend you to buy the sport body option. This option gives the car the sporty look that will turn head.This car is also AWD; basically the car is glue to the road.
