I read a lot about how the 3.2 I6 is underpowered and an undesirable engine. Have to say I find it to be perfect for the V70 application. No matter the speed, it just purrs and pulls. The car is my wife's commuter and our highway flier when chasing our son's wrestling team. 80mph+? Like glass. It's our first non-turbo Volvo and a perfect car for us.
