s70turbo1998 Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 To be honest, if you're just getting married...wait on getting a nice car. I would definitely want a ballin house/apartment before I had a ballin car. That way the C30 will have more time to develop, and the aftermarket for S60s has the potential to get bigger/cheaper.

flyfishing3 Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 AWD FTL unless you need it in the snowy statesor unless you like the safety, sure footedness and better daily control of AWD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nader Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 or unless you like the safety, sure footedness and better daily control of AWD.****My official short review of the S60R****When I drove the S60R the salesman informed me that 90% of the power goes to the front wheels unless its needed else where. Not sure how true it is.One thing I really killed me with the S60R was the turning radius! I know hummers with better a turning radius! But I suppose its something you could get used to.Other than that I recommend the S60R in manual! Go get em tiger! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
