I've driven the S60 R w/ it's gimmick 4C suspension which is absolutel crap, no matter what seeting you select from the would be electronically adjustable system, the ride will alwasy feel the same(as was what I experienced). I second that the suspension is quite soft, if not rubbery, qutie nice for getting off work after a long day and heading home. I guess on some level you could think of Volvo as the Scandinavian take on Mercedes Benz, though not close in any way in terms of engineering, etc. When you speak of a harder ride w/ a car w/ a stiffer suspension setup, such as what you'd find in an E90 3 equipped w/ ZSP, that is a compromise I'd take any day. The runflats do not bother me neither does the increase in wheel size, though in some very very strange way the non ZSP equipped E90 3 feels more commuinicative. Whatever the case may be(entierly subjective) the 3 or maybe even perhaps the 2 is most definately going to be my next car.
