the base car is a '04 s60R. The R is personally my favorite car on the market right now. Its got the handling(most technically advanced suspsension ive ever seen) its got the power(300hp, 295 fl/b of tourque at...can you say 1900 rpm from a 2.5 liter inline 5) Its got the interior, the natural leather seats are georgous. Its a georgous car and the biggest sleeper i can think of, no one expects a volvo to run a 5.4 second to 60 and a 14 flat in the 1/4.

The version that you showed has been tuned to i beleive 500 hp. Intercooler, intake, Exhaust and boost upgrades are probly the main componants of this. Not really sure exept i would do anything to have a 6 speed R in my driveway right now

i looked at the s60R. was low 40's. couldn't get a test drive as the two dealers near me sold each before they hit floor, so who wants their car to be the tester.

drove the 2.5t which was nice, the R could only have been better. back seat not bigger than g sedan

04 6mtC, DG - possibly most babied G on the board.

I also considered the S60R. I actually got too test drive one, last October before I picked up my G35. Very nice car and I have too agree with "the sleeper " comment. Having said that, this is still a FWD inspired AWD set -up so I'm not 100% sure how that affects the car's performance? When I test drove it, the salesman came with me and the test drive was about 5 minutes. He said they were trying too keep it low mileage?

Hmm...Those sideskirts don't quite belong on that ride...Seem somewhat uninspired, along with the mesh up front...But that's definitely one mean Volvo...Whoa- when's someone ever said that combination of words??
