IF you had to make a choice............
between a 2007 Acura TL Type S 6spd with 287 HP and a 2007 Volvo S60 R AWD 6spd with 300 hp turbo engine, which one would you pick if you had the money? Which one would you considered to be a better handling and performance car. Please chime in and give your opinions.
Thanks in advice

The S60R runs a bit faster I think. It pulls 0-60 in 5.3 with the 6MT. It also comes with 18's (that I personally love) and if you get it in black with the oem body kit, it looks amazing. Its a bit more expensive and the gearbox is a little bit untraditional but I like it. I was going to get that car but I hopped into the TL before scoping any cars out. As far as handling the S60R handles MUCH better than the TL ever will and its got the 4 piston brembo's on the front and rears. The TL has a sleeker and nicer body style and Im not too sure if the S60R comes with xenons or its an option, but Im pretty sure they dont come stock. With the S60R you get AWD, a much rarer car, a little more speed and better handling. Its also swedish made, but sadly Ford bought Volvo in 2001 and they have interchangeable 25 cent parts now With the TL you get reliability, a nicer body style, but there are TL's creeping all over. I see at least 15 a day in my town. Test drive both and see what suits you more.
