They're looking quite dated now.

In terms of 'modern' looks, I would say an R-design S40 looks better in some areas but not all.
The back end of the S40 is completely let down by the narrow wheels and bad camber. Also the rear facelift teemed with the r-design spoiler makes the backend look iffy..makes the car look taller than it should look.
My S60 had a very strong stance at the rear...factory wheels were pushed right out to the edge of the arches. Much prefer the back of an S60 to S40. Infact, I want to lose the rear spoiler on my S40 T5 altogether...
S40 definitely looks more modern from the front though, but its a bit too boxy from the side. S60 looks much more elegant from the side.
Car design is something I find quite fascinating.
