I've had a Volvo, and currently have an Outback.
Volvo parts/fluids/everything are a rip off. Find a good independent mechanic for anything non-warranty.
Subaru parts are cheap as hell.
Both seem fairly solid mechanically.
The Volvo will likely be a lot more engaging to drive/sit in. I haven't been in a V60 or driven one, so take that with a grain of salt.
The Volvo is 1000x prettier.
The Outback will have more cargo capacity than almost anything you would cross shop it against.
