  Up for sale is my 2007 RDesign Volvo C70. I bought the car earlier this year from the original owner and fixed the problems and did some tasteful upgrades. Everything i replaced even the upgraded parts are OEM Volvo parts.

 First off i replaced all four new Volvo wheel bearings. ($800 for all four) The weak link in the C70. I put new Volvo front rotors and pads. ($320) This car already had from the factory the biggest available rotors. 16.5" is what Volvo calls them. The rear brake pads have 6mm left. New is 8mm. I also did a complete tuneup on the car. Castro Synthetic oil change. Volvo spark plugs, Volvo air filter, Volvo cabin filter, and the newest available software updates for the car. (About $250)

Now after matenince was complete the fun stuff came. I found a almost brand new complete dark red interior from a 2012 C70 ($1600) and had to have it. Everything is the same from 2006-2013 besides the center console which i kept stock. There was no modifications necessary to make it work. All the seat functions work flawlessly.  There was nothing wrong with the original interior i just liked the look better. At that time i also got a RDesign instrument cluster from a 2010 S40 ($275) and modified my original cluster to make it work. The only thing i changed was the chrome trim around the mileage and trip computer and the blue face gage plate. All the electronics of the cluster are original so actual mileage and all functions are correct. I also added the RDesign Pedals ($95)and the trunk lip spoiler($340 painted). I also bought Four Brand new RDesign S60 Rims ($1900) and new tires. Nexen 245/45/18. ($600) Check the brand new 2014 cant even buy them if you wanted to Black center caps. I also added a OBX cat back 50 state legal exhaust. ($475) I couldn't hear the engine at all and kept stalling the car out and not knowing what gear i was in unless i looked at the rpm gauge. It is not lout at all and you can only really hear it full throttle over 3K. Just enough noise to remind you it is not an electric car. I only put on 3K miles on the car since i bought it so everything i have done has less than that.

 Now on to the basics of the car. It was special ordered by the original owner from Sweden with a 6 Speed manual with navigation with Premium Dynaudio audio system with Sirius satellite radio with 6 CD with aux input. This will rival any sound system out there. I have heard professional aftermarket systems that don't sound as nice clear or loud. It also has the factory xenon headlight upgrade with headlight cleaners and heated front seats. It also came with the sport steering wheel and shift knob. The car is extremely well taken car of with only a couple slight marks and blemishes in the paint. there is one small door ding on each door. I was going to have my friend who owns a dent removal company take care of them but the day before he was going to come he got into a bad accident and is still recuperating. Both bumpers are flawless no blemishes. The rims are perfect not one scratch nick or bend. The interior is extremely nice to. All the cars electronics work 100%. All the mechanical bits of the car are perfect. No suspension noise no engine noise. The transmission shifts perfectly and the clutch engages smoothly. You can let go of the wheel down a straight road and go for miles without correction. The top works excellent and doesn't make any noise when closed or open. I also bought a few expensive accessories included with the car. the rear wind blocker is included. ($500) With that up and the windows up it is just as windy in the car as an open sunroof would be. A must for my wife who is always cold. I also bought all weather mats ($90) (carpet mats are also included) and the Ski bag ($300) for two pairs of skis through the trunk. The only reason i am selling this car is i want something rear wheel drive manual transmission and over 400 HP. If you have something to trade let me know. No bikes boats or other power equipment. I really want a F60 V10 M6 or M5. I am also interested in a 2005 + M3 or E39 M5. If you have something worth more than my car and i like it would be willing to pay you the reasonable difference. Or if you have something worth less that i want i would take the difference in cash. Please email me with any questions or offers.

Volvo credits China, Europe for first-half profitability

Fri, 22 Aug 2014

If everything goes to plan, Volvo might be showing the first signs of a turnaround after several years coping with old products and a staid image. The Swedish brand is imminently launching its next-gen XC90 SUV on a completely revised, modular platform and using a cutting-edge family of engines, and it has even more products to take advantage of the fresh components on the drawing board. "We are excited about the launch of the all-new XC90, which marks the beginning of the re-launch of the Volvo brand," said CEO Håkan Samuelsson in the company's announcement. In the meantime, the business is moving back to profitability and is even forecasting growth through the rest of 2014.
In Volvo's recently released financial and sales results for the first six months of the year, volume was up 9.5 percent to 299,013 cars. On top of that, operating income reached 1.21 billion Swedish krona ($175 million) after posting a loss in the same period in 2013. Net income was also improved to 535 million Swedish krona ($77.4 million), which was also a reversal from a negative last year.
With these great results, Volvo is now forecasting 10 percent sales growth worldwide by the end of the year, and the key to it is a booming market in some regions. China, home to parent company Geely, was up 34.4 percent first half of the year. It's now Volvo's biggest market in the world and helped by exclusive models like the S60L (pictured above) and S80L. "We are growing our presence in China and we expect to sell at least 80,000 cars there this year," said Samuelsson in the company's forecast.

Honda Civic, Volvo XC90 named 2016 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year

Mon, Jan 11 2016

It's a great day to be the Honda Civic and Volvo XC90. These cars are the official 2016 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year, with the awards just having been announced at the Detroit Auto Show. The Civic is a great car, and a fantastic entry in the compact class. To us, its win isn't a surprise, though our enthusiast hearts were really rooting for the runner-up Mazda MX-5 Miata. The new Chevy Malibu was also a finalist for this year's award. As for the Truck/Utility award, we wholeheartedly agree with the Volvo XC90 choice. It's a fantastic-looking, premium, tech-forward vehicle, and represents a huge step forward for Volvo here in the United States. But its runners-up, the Nissan Titan XD and Honda Pilot, are also great choices, bringing a lot of stiff competition to some pretty important segments. Here's how the jury voted: Car of the Year Honda Civic – 203 points Chevy Malibu – 181 points Mazda MX-5 Miata – 146 points Truck/Utility of the Year Volvo XC90 – 310 points Honda Pilot – 111 points Nissan Titan XD – 109 points

Limited-edition Volvo S60 Polestar priced at $59,300*, V60 at $60,900*

Fri, 01 Aug 2014

You saw their US reveal at this year's Chicago Auto Show and read our driving impressions from Sweden. Now, if you act fast, you can actually own one of the very limited 2015.5 Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar models coming to the United States. The order page for these slick Swedes is now online, but the slots are filling up about as quickly as these cars accelerate.
Volvo plans to build a combined 750 of these Polestar models for the world, but the US is being allocated just 120 of them. Prices start at $59,300 for the S60 or $60,900 for the V60 (*plus a $925 destination charge). The only option is color - either Black Sapphire or Rebel Blue. If rarity is playing a part in your decision, you might want to pick the S60. According to the reservation site, only 20 of the sedans in each color are making it over here; the rest are V60s.
As the top versions of their respective models, both Polestars are packed with features. They share a turbocharged, 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine rated at 345 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque with a six-speed automatic transmission and a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system. Acceleration to 60 miles per hour is claimed to take 4.7 seconds for the S60 or a tenth more for the V60 with a top speed of 155 mph. They are about more than just a hotter engine, though, with Öhlins shocks, six-piston brake calipers and 20-inch Polestar wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. Check out the gallery for the full, official specs, and get to the order page soon, if you decide you need one of these limited Swedish sportsters.
