Looking at new S60 -- 2.4T or T5?

The 2.4 light pressure turbo has more torque earlier than the T5, so that 0-60 is compareable. The 2.4T isn't as finnicky with octane, but still wants 89 octane for the best milage.
The T5 might have sport suspension, which wives tipically dislike. Every bump and tar strip will be felt, especially in the rear seats. If the T5 has the "sport" option, I would suggest she buy the 2.4T
