I spotted this red S60 on the road a couple days ago. Have you seen a lot of new-generation S60s where you live? I honestly haven't seen very many. And with Jersey plates in Southern California, this one was no doubt a manufacturer-sourced car just like ours. It still looked good going down the road, though.

None in LA. Just a sea of BMW's, Mercs and Audi's.

Very few here in the DC area. I probably see more Ferrari's and Lambo's.

jasond52, in Northwest D.C. where I live they're fairly common. Lots of long-time Volvo buyers in some of these neighbords.

There's a black one on campus in PDX, don't know the target demographic, but he drives like an unbelievable douche.

Very, very rarely. When I do see one I shake my head in wonder. The front end seems like someone left the car in the sun too long.

I see quite a number of them where I live - SF Bay Area, in Marin. Definitely the best-looking Volvo in a long time.

Have seen a few in Ohio. Often the same color as yours.

That is no s60, Brent. That is the s60 R-design! Oh an I see a ton of them in the Boston area actually.

I live in Massachusetts so yes. We people from the bay-state love our Swedes

I don't think I have seen one yet in Colorado Springs or Denver other than at a dealer.

I see them every once in awhile in and around NYC. It's unusual to notice one because (A) they're pretty rare and (B) they are so anonymous looking. It's not a bad looking car but the previous S60 (and the rest of the Volvo lineup) was pretty striking and unique. This car looks like "any car."

like the other Bay Stater, have seen quite a few here in central MA
overall I like the shape, but some of the detail is a bit over done

I`ve seen a few, very few.

St. Louis area, here.
Someone else at my work has one, making 2 on a parking lot of like 1000 cars.
I reguarly see another two on my commuting route to/from work. That's it -- but I rarely drive outside of my set pattern. Most of the other vehicles are probably the same ones I see every day.

I see them a lot in the Miami area. when I took my volvo to service they said that the T5 is selling really well. Since they had no T5 inventory they were offering incredible deals on the T6. 33,600 for a loaded no nav T6 AWD is amazing. You will not get such a great car for this price.
