D_Sp8s, here is my take. I have a 05 S60R. Freaking love my car wen I drive it. But even little things are expensive to repair (leaking angle gear (the AWD component up front) was $600 at independent shop). My goal is to get a 200k badge with it though. I decided on it over the Legacy due to the looks, features and performance. I am not sure I would buy the Volvo again if I could go back. But I have made my bed, and by god, I am going to sleep in it. And lets face it, it is much more comfortable than the Subies.
One car you may not have thought about is a MazdaSpeed Mazda 6. I looked at the Mazda the same day as the Volvo but the Mazda they had was priced too close to the S60R. Downside, I think they only made it one year, but it shares most parts with the 2x Mazda6. I was impressed with the Mazda, but for a little more $, I stepped into a much nicer car (based on the samples they had on the lot).
