1996 Volvo 850 Turbo With Manual Transmission on 2040-cars
Boca Raton, Florida, United States
|
Up for sale: 1996 Volvo 850 Turbo. Has approximately 100k miles. Good fun car. Quite fast and very fun. 5 speed transmission. Has been in one "accident" when I was up North and slid into a sign in the snow, minor body damage to passenger rear quarter panel. I am the second owner. This car has been extensively upgraded while I worked on it for an engineering project at school.
Here is a list of the upgrades: -Larger turbocharger -Full exhaust -R exhaust manifold -Ported and polished intake manifold -Intake manifold spacer -Larger throttle body -Higher flowing fuel injectors -S60 2.5T engine head -MSD ignition coil -Heavy duty compressor bypass valve -Silicone vacuum lines -Poly upper engine mount -New transmission torque mount -Replaced subframe bushings -Poly subframe bushing inserts -Front and rear sway bar from IPD -Front poly sway bar bushings -Front strut brace -D2 Racing coilovers, front and back, height and dampening adjustable -Adjustable endlinks -Custom ARD Blue tune (increased mpg's and speed) -HID headlights (6000k) -Gold powdercoated BBS wheels It's important to note that since so much work was done to the car, a majority of the seals and gaskets (included head gasket) were changed to accommodate the increase in power. Reason I'm selling: can't afford two cars in college, this was meant to be an Integrated Systems Engineering project only. Another thing to note is the mileage discrepancy, which was caused by a broken odometer gear. This is a very common issue with Volvos and I have been told it is an easy fix. I never took care of it because it was outside the range of my project guidelines. |

This is Volvo's awesome S60 V8 Supercar entry [w/video]
Sat, 15 Feb 2014Australian auto news has been dire for the last several months with all three automakers that build there announcing they would stop production within the next three years. But Volvo is providing a shot of excitement with the unveiling of its new S60 racecar for the upcoming season of the Australian V8 Supercar series.
The Volvo S60 racecar will use a 5.0-liter, naturally aspirated V8 based on Volvo's B8444S production engine that will be tuned to produce roughly 650 horsepower on E85 ethanol. Power will get to the ground via a six-speed sequential transmission, and it will be able to reach 62 miles per hour in 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 185. All cars in the series use common parts for the chassis, transaxle, and rear suspension.
Volvo's Polestar performance arm will campaign two of the S60 racers this season. While Volvo might seem like an odd inclusion into Australian racing, it actually has quite a successful history. It won the 1986 Australian Touring Car Championship in a 240 and won the Bathhurst 1000 race in 1998 in an S40. Polestar is not new to racing either, having been racing Volvos around the world since 1996.

First production Volvo S60 Polestar shown off
Thu, 18 Apr 2013With the Volvo S60 Polestar going on sale in Australia this June, Volvo has finally released images and specs for the production version of the performance sedan. While no official build number has been announced, one image of the car's steering wheel shows a serial number plaque that says "No. 000/100" indicating that production will likely be limited to just 100 units in Australia. The press release states that the Australia run of Polestar-tuned S60s is a "pilot project" and that other potential markets are "under investigation."
Although it looks very similar to the S60 Polestar Concept we first saw at the LA Auto Show last year, the production version of the car sports a few changes. Visually, the front and rear fascias have been slightly modified from the concept car, as have the matte-black wheels. Inside, we see a different steering wheel that adds the aforementioned build sequence plaque but loses the suede leather accents, and there is also a sportier looking shift lever with a chrome handle that features a Polestar logo.
As for performance figures, rather than the 508-horsepower of the S60 Polestar Concept, the production version will be limited to 350 hp and more than 368 pound-feet of torque, which is still an improvement of about 25 hp and at least 14 lb-ft over a 2013 S60 R-Design. Polestar also tuned the six-speed automatic transmission and Haldex all-wheel-drive system for optimal performance leading to a top speed of 155 miles per hour and a 0-62 mph time of 4.9 seconds. The production S60 Polestar will still get suspension, brake and aerodynamic upgrades.
