Good Body And Interior Condition, Off White Ext. And Blk. Interior, Automatic on 2040-cars
Nashville, Tennessee, United States
THIS HAS BEEN A GREAT CAR FOR ME. I AM DISABLED AND NEEDED A CAR THAT WAS SAFE. IT HAS THE STEEL REINFORCED DOORS,
AS I HAVE HAD THEM COME BACK AND HIT ME SO I KNOW! I HAVE NEVER HAD TO HAVE WORK DONE ON THE ENGINE IN THE SEVERAL YEARS I HAVE HAD THE CAR. ONLY REPLACED BODY AND BRAKE PARTS THAT WEAR DUE TO IT'S AGE. IT PASSES INSPECTION WITHOUT A PROBLEM EACH YEAR. THIS IS A FAST CAR, EASILY MOVING PAST NEWER CARS WITH NO DIFFICULTY THOUGH IT IS ONLY A 4 CYLINDER. THEY KNEW WHAT THEY WERE DOING WHEN THEY BUILT THIS CAR. I HAVE HAD A RECENT TUNE UP, $1,000, A NEW EXHAUST WITH A LIFE TIME GUARANTEE, NEW TIRES WITHIN THE LAST 6 MONTHS, THERE ARE OTHER NEW PARTS (SMALL PARTS) IN THE TRUNK, THAT HAVE NOT BEEN INSTALLED, BUT NOTHING AGAIN TO DO WITH THE ENGINE. THERE IS A NEW JACK AND PRY BAR IN BACK. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS CAR. IT IS A GREAT CAR TO DEVELOP INTO AN ANTIQUE OR TO USE AS A STARTER CAR FOR A STUDENT. EITHER WAY YOU WILL DEFINATELY GET YOUR MONIES WORTH. I WOULDN'T EVEN SELL IF I WASN'T GOING BACK TO HAWAII WHERE MY LITTLE HOUSE IS BEING RENOVATED AND SOLD. C. LOVELL |

Volvo Polestar reveals new V8 Supercars engine
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Volvo may be better known for turbo fives and inline fours, but in 2005 it launched the XC90 with a new eight-cylinder engine built for it by Yamaha. Fast forward to this past June when Volvo announced its intention to enter Australia's V8 Supercars series, where it would compete with the likes of Ford, Holden, Nissan and Mercedes-AMG. This is the engine with which it intends to do so.
Revealed this weekend at the Sydney 500, this competition-spec powerplant is based on the same B8444S that powered the XC90 and S80 (not to mention the Noble M600), but tuned for racing duty to be shoehorned into the new S60 touring car. The 60-degree aluminum block has been bored out from 4.4 liters to 5.0, its compression ratio boosted to 10:1, modified to run on E85 bio-ethanol and its redline increased to 7500 rpm. Volvo also promises a unique engine note from its new racers.
While Volvo and its racing partner Polestar haven't released official output numbers, regulations call for outputs between 620 and 650 horsepower - in any event, a whole lot more than the 311 hp it produces in stock form. (Noble managed to squeeze that much out of the same block, but that required twin turbochargers while this unit remains naturally aspirated.) Scope out the details in the press release below and the photos from the reveal in the gallery above.
Volvo celebrates 20 years of sleeper wagons with 850 T-5R and V60 Polestar
Mon, 10 Nov 2014I must have been around Bar Mitzvah age when I was in the back of my parents' car on the highway as we passed a truck full of Volvo 850 T-5R wagons - half of them in black, half in banana yellow. It was one of the coolest things I'd ever seen: a whole gaggle of sleeper power wagons that were infinitely cooler than whatever minivan we were riding in. Hard to believe that was 20 years ago, but it was. And Polestar is understandably keen to mark the anniversary of the first overt Volvo performance wagon.
While Volvo's racing partner hasn't released some commemorative edition to celebrate that prototypical sleeper, it has shot a special batch of photos of the T-5R (based on the 850 wagon internally known as the 855 for its five doors) alongside its modern successor, the V60 Polestar. The images shot in Huntington Beach, CA, only go to show how much has changed in the two decades that separate them.
Whereas this front-drive T-5R packed a turbocharged inline-five driving 240 horsepower through a four-speed automatic propel the yellow box to 62 in 7.0 seconds, the turbo six in the svelter, Rebel Blue-clad 2015 V60 Polestar churns out 350 hp to all four wheels through a six-speed auto for a 4.9-second sprint. That's the kind of progress we can get behind. In fact, it's the sort of progress that everyone can get behind, really, because chances are whatever you're driving will probably have a hard time keeping up.
2015 Volvo S60 T6 Drive-E
Wed, 23 Apr 2014For those not paying attention, Volvo has updated its S60 sedan range for 2015 with a new range of engines under the Drive-E label. Wearing the same T5 and T6 badges to note the relative levels of power under the hood, both engines are 2.0-liter four-cylinders, with the lesser being turbocharged and the greater being both supercharged and turbocharged.
Both Drive-E variants are currently only available in front-wheel-drive flavor, though Volvo will still happily sell you an S60 T5 AWD with the older 2.5-liter turbo five-cylinder, or a top-of-the-line S60 T6 with a turbo'd 3.0-liter six-cylinder and all the wheels turning.
The car I drove for a week is perhaps the most balanced version of the S60 range, with that exotic sounding twin-charged 2.0-liter mill planted happily in the attractively sloping nose. Provided you're not hung up on front-drive dynamics, the T6 Drive-E might be a solid candidate for your next premium small sedan shopping list, as well.
