I am not sure about a good mechanic in NYC, but someone should know of one. As for what to look for before you buy the S60 would be the same things you would look for when buying any used car. Get service records and make sure all the maintenance is up to date. Make sure there are no accidents, that kind of stuff. One thing to keep in mind is the ETM issue that these cars seem to have. There is a subforum just for ETM issues so you may want to check it out.
