Advice to Buyer:
It's a great car but I would recommend a Lexus ES300
Detailed Review:
The Volvo is a comfortable car to sit in. The seats in the front and back are comfortable. It also provides a lot of legroom in the back. The sound system sounds great and realistic. However, the air conditioning seems inadaquete on a hot day even on full blast. Every bump is felt when you go over it and listening to the loud engine gets boring after a while. All in all, the good points outweigh the bad. A Japanese luxury car is much better than the Volvo because they are quieter, have V6's and have a better ride quality for around the same price.
