Kickdown lag on an NA is probably due to poor maintenance and/or a dirty throttle plate. It is not supposed to happen.
I realize price is an issue, but there are some nice S60s in the 2006-7 range. Do not let a turbo turn you off, the MPG is also very good and the 0-60 time is quite good. Remember, an 03 is 11 years old, the rubber bits are starting to crack.
Every once in a while, there will be a nice car on the local Craigslist (by owner).
EDIT: Consider an S80 with the 5 cyl light pressure turbo,

But never an S80 T6 until after at least 2006.
