Down here, Wheels Magazine has just driven the S60-R. They didn't mind it but basically said that the M3 and C32 don't have anything to worry about. Down here at least the Volvo doesn't cost anywhere near as much as the Germans, so the S60-R is really somewhere between a BMW 330i and a M3 for performance but priced around a 330i. Personally I'm a little disappointed in the styling, the PPC Showcar looked much more aggressive but Euro Performance sedans always seem to be designed to be a wolf in sheeps clothing.
