If you’re looking for a premium sedan with some style, the 2008 Volvo S60’s sculpted hood, trunk and aggressive wheel and tire packages give it a much bolder look than its understated German and Japanese rivals. The S60 is also a bit wider than most of its competitors, which translates into generous shoulder room.
If you’re looking for the neutral handling only a rear-wheel-drive sedan can provide, the high-powered T5’s noticeable torque steer can, at times, become annoying. The deletion of a manual transmission may also deter purists. The 2.5T is also not as powerful as many similarly-priced V6 models.
