Re: 2003 Volvo S60

I want another S60R. >shields self from flying roundels< I'm working in the branch office with a company van again, so I won't put 7k miles on a new-to-me car in 3 months like I did when I was working from home.

I actually had found one I really liked 3 weeks ago in SC, but they couldn't guarantee more than 1/2 of what I owe for this car w/o seeing it (even hi-res pics didn't help), and I wasn't about to drive 1200 miles for what could have turned out to be a $580+/month payment on a used car. So I figure I'll (try to) sell it outright first.

Ok, you have just got to tell us the reason behind your fascination for Volvos. I mean don't get me wrong they are nice safe cars and when I drove that one it was ok but when it comes to used $20k performance(that word being the key) sedans, IMHO there are much better candidates, especially for a car guy like you, that are much faster, handle better, and probably ride/get just as good of gas mileage. We may have been through this before

Have you considered anything else this time around? How about a p1mp 330i PP, a '04/05 CTS-V, E36 M3 4dr, 540i 6-speed, STEvo, GTO, or even a new Mustang?
