 This is probably a car I will regret selling. But with a wife & three kids to haul as well as a bigger boat to pull, it doesn't make sense to let her sit.  I have had this car 6 years and have driven her to Florida and back 2 times. I would not hesitate to drive her that distance again. She has low miles, no accidents, always well maintained and runs & drives great.  The T5 model is a step below the R version. Same engine as the R minus a chip that adds about 12 hp and the badging. It looks slow. But is not. With the transmission button set on Sport or economy, she is very quick and fun to drive.  She also has a hidden hitch and is wired for lights.  Newer Goodyear high performance tires. Recent VA inspection (3/2013).  Interior not perfect. But in really good shape for her age. On the highway, she gets about 28 miles per gallon.

She is not perfect, however, is in great shape for a 1997 car. Here is what I know she needs: rear shock absorbers, bumper(?) within the rear coil spring that protects if bottomed out and hydraulic lift for rear hatch.  The paint is in very good shape with the exception of the clear coat coming off the roof.

Car is sold as-is/where is.  I have done my best to honestly describe exactly what I am auctioning. Winning bidder is responsible for arranging pick-up/transportation of vehicle.

Serious bids only. Do not bid unless you are a legitimate bidder, can pay the winning bid and arrange/pay for transportation.  I will be selling this locally, so may stop the auction early.

Non-refundable deposit must be received no later than 24 hours after close of auction

Please let me know if you have any questions. Happy bidding.

Translogic 189: 2015 LA Auto Show

Tue, Nov 24 2015

The LA Auto Show has become known for its green cars and concepts, and 2015 was no exception. Translogic host Jonathon Buckley gets all the details on BMW's 330e plug-in hybrid straight from BMW President of North America Ludwig Willisch. Then we get up-to-date on Honda's latest FCX Clarity hydrogen fuel cell car. We round out our tour with a stop at the Elio Motors booth for a look at their updated, three-wheel P5 concept and a chat with CEO Paul Elio. But first, we jump in a time machine at the Volvo booth to discuss Concept 26, an interpretation of how car interiors might evolve in the era of self-driving cars. "The reason why we talked about it as a time machine [is] because, really, Concept 26 is giving you back something that is so precious," explained Volvo senior director of design Tisha Johnson. "We're letting you delegate driving to the car, so that you can then have that time to yourself." Click here to learn more about our host, Jonathon Buckley.

Next Polestar Volvo sounds great, whatever it is

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

Something - we don't know what yet - is coming from Polestar. While we'll be recovering from next week's LA Auto Show and Tokyo Motor Show (and starting to slack off ahead of an extended Thanksgiving weekend), the official tuner of Volvo products has announced plans to unveil its latest creation in less than two weeks.
Based on this video teaser, we can only imagine (and hope) that it's the souped-up Volvo V60 recently caught testing by our spy shooters. The idea of a high-performance Volvo wagon was already enough to get us giddy last month, but the exhaust note in this video is downright captivating. Scroll down to watch the teaser for yourself, and be prepared for some bright blue wagony goodness to be revealed on November 26.

Volvo shows off 345-hp S60 and V60 Polestar

Thu, 06 Feb 2014

We showed you the hot, new Volvo V60 Polestar a few months back and raved about the fact that this long-roofed family car can hit 60 miles per hour in just 4.9 seconds. Now, we're seeing it and its four-doored brother, the S60 Polestar sedan, in person for the first time.
As we told you when the V60 Polestar was unveiled, both cars are motivated by a 3.0-liter, turbocharged six-cylinder that generates 345 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, with peak twist arriving between 2,800 and 4,750. Power is channeled to a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system via a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and launch control.
Both Polestar models benefit from a suspension that features Öhlins shocks, while they ride on 20-inch "bespoke" wheels. Six-cylinder Brembo calipers clamp down on 14.6-inch rotors in front, meaning these Volvos should come to a stop as quickly as they get going.
