Default 2006 s60r - New Member from San Diego

Hey all, just wanted to say yo!

Just moved into the new ride a 2006 s60r Sapphire Black w/ dark blue int - automatic, 56k miles.

I left an 2001 Audi A6 2.7t, 6-speed manual (ecu upgrade of course (305hp)).

My audi was amazing. But hitting 10 years old it was time for something new in the driveway.

My Volvo choice was up against an 06 Saab 9-3. Honestly, the Saab is an amazing car, the one I was looking at had some killer options, but.... It's like chalk vs cheese when comparing to the s60. The car just wasn't "there" enough. Not a substantial build. Fast and fun, but doesn't sit on the road like I like.

So here I am... a new Volvo owner!

It has a turning radius of a broken down cruise ship, but so does an F1 car.

Is the ECU upgrade worth it? Are there brands to compare? BSR vs???

I'll take some pics this weekend of the beast and post. Now a naming needs to occur. I've always named my motorcycles, but never my cars. It needs a tough name so my wife doesn't always call it the 'vulva'. My youngest son of course called it the batmobile....
