Yes I know they didn't make a C70R but if they did this is what it would have been. I have worked at Volvo dealer for over ten years so all the upgrades were done right and work 100%. This car has been my daily driver for over 2 years and I don't want to see it go but a house is more important than a toy right now and I have to sell it. When I purchased it it was a none stock 2.3 turbo manual transmission car. I will try to remember everything I have done to it but I will prob forget a few things because of how much time and effort has gone into this car. Last winter I did all the upgrades to the car in about a months time. First off I put a 2.5 S60R engine with 104k and a brand new Volvo S60R turbocharger. At this time I also replaced all the engine seals gaskets thermostat hoses water pump breather system plugs timing belt kit serpentine belt a new a/c compressor new Volvo turbo single mass flywheel with a new 850R clutch and throughout bearing new axle seals all new fluids and anything else that needed replacing was done. It also has brand new engine engine mounts all the way around and an IPD upper and lower polly torque mount. I also installed a turbo back custom made 3" exhaust. Yes full 3" not the usual 2.5" catback. I also installed the new four piston Brembo brakes pads and new 330 MM S60R rotors. I also bought a set of brand new Volvo 17" Pegasus rims and had them painted gun metal grey. I also installed Bilstein HD struts on all four corners with rare Apex springs with a 1.6 drop on all fours. I also put in a Ipd rear sway bar to give it some oversteer. I don't have the front bar. At that time I also put in all new suspension mounts sway bar end links and rear trailing arm links. I also replaced the front control arms and inner and outer tie rods. I also put in the volcano interior that I stumbled upon in a random junk yard. They only made this interior in 2004 and it is extremely rare! I also I stalled a V70R blue instrument cluster. The mileage is correct because I only swapped the blue faceplate into my original cluster. I also added the Kenwood DNX 9140 navigation Bluetooth iPod head unit. I also added the surround speaker with its own amp. Yes the head unit supports 5.1 Dolby surround. I also added a Kenwood 1000watt amp for the upgraded Boston acoustic slim mount Subwoofers installed in their stock locations. As you already know there is a stock 400 watt alpine amp that powers the rest of the midrange speakers stock from the factory. I also put Dynomat on the entire floor because the heater core blew up and soaked the original padding. Yea i replaced the heater core with a brand new Volvo part. I also installed a brand new Volvo V70R front bumper fogs and grilles. I even took the fogs apart to paint the inner bezels black to match the upgraded headlight housings. Both the fogs and low beam headlights are xenon gas discharge lights. As I have been driving this car daily I have addresses every problem that has come up immediately so there is a lot of things I have fixed that I forgot about over the past few years. Every electric option works 100% windows heated seats lighting convertible top ect... The windows have a 5% tint and the tail lights and marker lights have been sprayed with tint then clearcoated and wet sanded to give it the shiny finish. The body does have its dings and scratches but no major problems or body damage. Although the convertible top works flawlessly it does show signs of age. The back window had to be glued in and there are a few wear patches on the canvas surface. The top does not leak and the weather stripping is good. I did all this to the car when it had 148K and it now has 178K. This is mostly highway miles because of my 100 mile daily comute and frequent trips to vermont and new hampshire. I just replaced the front pads last month and turned the rotors. Please email me with any questions or if you want to see the car in person.

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.
Polestar says goodbye to Volvo C30 in video tribute
Tue, 12 Mar 2013The Volvo C30 was put to its eternal bed a few months ago, but the tuners at Polestar have a little more eulogizing to do. The Swedish house of speed that has raced and reworked the little hatch since its introduction in 2006 wants the world to know what they've been through together, so it has encapsulated seven years of around-the-world action into three minutes and 28 seconds of track footage and champagne.
We're still waiting on word of a replacement for the funny little hatch, and while we lament what could have been, the video below proves that the C30 provided plenty of thrills for those outside of the US. And as you can read in our recent review of the Polestar-enhanced road-going C30, it provided a decent amount of fun for those of us in the States, as well.
2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year entries announced
Wed, Jul 6 2016Over 40 vehicles will compete for the 2017 North American Car, Truck, and Utility of the Year awards. If that name looks a little strange, it's because the competition added a third category. In years past, pickup trucks, crossovers, SUVs, commercial vans, and minivans competed for the same award. That's why there were occasionally weird comparisons, like last year's competition between the Volvo XC90 and Nissan Titan XD. The new format separates pickups and commercial vans into the truck contest and CUVs, SUVs, and minivans into the utility competition. A complete list of eligible vehicles is below, but here are a few highlights. For one, the entire list of entries has a luxurious lean. Of the 43 vehicles, nearly half of them are from premium brands. There are two eligible Bentleys – the Bentayga and Mulsanne – the Rolls-Royce Dawn, Jaguar F-Pace, Audi Q7, and the Mercedes-Benz GLS-, E-, and S-Class Maybach. The performance ranks are lofty, too, with the Audi R8, Acura NSX, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Mercedes SL- and SLC-Class, Porsche 718, and F-150 Raptor. The mainstream entries are just as comprehensive. From the Chrysler Pacifica to the Chevrolet Cruze to the Fiat 124 Spider to the Mitsubishi Mirage, NACTOY has covered an enormous price range with this year's contestants. Of course, these are only the eligible vehicles. They'll need to run through three rounds of judging, starting in September at NACTOY's traditional Hell, MI, test drive. The Canadian and American journalists involved in the judging will announce this year's nine finalists – three in each category – on December 6.
