Depending on which part of the USA you are from will determine the price. I like to avoid cars from NYC and northern NJ. You are right about avoiding the early AWD, but the later Haldex design are quite reliable.
The low pressure turbo is a very nice compromise, still good on gas and enough power to merge into traffic. The high pressure turbo needs a little more work and is hotter under the hood.
Stay away from Torch Light Motors in NJ! Check your local craigslist.org and just do a search on "volvo".
The 03 and up V70s are very nice...
