Price is a bit high for a 'bare bones' V60 with 38K, even if it has 4 brand new tires. The slow response to the hard throttle might be the transmission computer not used to your driving style, any new car will have to 'learn' your driving style - usually a week of driving.
Being sold at auction by the original dealer means that they didn't think they could have sold it from their used car pool. A lot of folks would shy away from a car with that much mileage, but I would presume that the car was not subjected to a lot of harmful short trips. Also, any auctioned vehicle will bring a low price to the wholesaler, profit galore.
Check out the remaining warranty. You might not have much left. A tranny flush may cost you $500, and you cannot do that at home.
