New Volvo S60 "Naughty" Autocross

To celebrate the release of the all-new S60, Volvo launched "The Naughty Tour" across the country.

This is my run through the autocross in the 300hp turbo, AWD, Volvo S60.

The Volvo is impressive, but not as good as the BMW 3-series in dynamics. However, I would spend my money on the Volvo. It drives right, looks great, and it's Volvo--so it's a safe car. Understated too.

Add onto that the fact you won't look like a complete ass.

I completely agree that the Volvo is a great handling car, but the BMW is just that much more stiff and that much more stable.

However, If it were my money--I'd definitely buy the Volvo for it's understated coolness. With or without the R-design.

I thought that the S60 handeled pretty damn well!!! But if you do want that extra bit of proformance there's the R-Design wich stiffens up the suspension by quite a fair ammount and the car even gets a strut brace that holds the 2 shock towers together!!
