I had the S60R same year, best seats ever. Now does this suffer from the same turning radius issue of the S60?

That is the one complaint. Not the best turn radius for sure

When you consider that your V70R is ~360 HP (chipped) and that the new V60 Polestar is 345 HP and approximately $60k, and doesn't come with a stick shift, this is a really good value. Although, the V60P does come with Ohlins and updated Haldex, it still strikes me as a bargain IMHO.
