I drove a 2000 s80 out of curiosity. I was totally disapointed with the car. The steering seemed sloppy. It did not seem as peppy as I would have expected. The springy trunk felt cheap. I like the working a/c, the cupholder and the sound system though.LOL If I hadent knowen my 240 the s80 would probaly be an okay car, but it did not handle nearly as well my 240. Mabye the suspension could be upgraded...but I don't know. I really hope that volvo comes out with a car that I like so I can stick with them. Maybe and S60R someday. I just dont like loose steering. I like it nice and stiff like it is in the 240.
