998 Volvo V70R AWD
Mileage: 140k
Engine Mileage: 100k

I bought this car with a bad engine and did the RN swap because I planned to do a k24, injectors, a tune and to use the car for a winter daily. Our timeline didn't work out and we didn't get the car done until now so I rather just sell it and free up the cash since winter is coming to an end. I'm sure you guys are familiar with the swap and know what needs to be done. I'm not trying to pawn the car off as some super dooper rare swaped car but its undeniable that its convient to already have it done and its hard to find 98s that clean up this well. The car runs perfect and I honestly wish I needed a daily but I don't and storing a million cars in Boston sucks.

The engine swap was done by a friend of mine who has done several of these swaps and specializes in Volvo. The engine is a B5234T3 on which the VVT and secondary air system were eliminated. The car runs like it did from the factory and every feature works. Its extremely reliable and noticeably faster then a stock R.

Work performed by me (100 miles on swap):
- New timing belt, tensioner, idler, and water pump
- New Tstat
- New Serp belt and tensioner
- Cam and crank seals
- New intake and exhaust gaskets
- New cap, rotor, wires, and plugs
- PS resevoir
- Hoses
- Fluid flush
- Upper motor mounts
- lower mileage 16T turbo
- Full Detail
- Painted front and rear bumpers

Worked performed recently:
- Genuine Driveshaft
- Brakes (they look to have low mileage on them)
- Tires (also look to be pretty new)

What it needs:
- Upper shock mounts
- Windshield (12 inch crack on far right side of windshield. Not in line of site)
- misc interior pieces

The exterior has original paint minus the bumpers and is in great shape. The car is rust free with the exception of a small spot on the tailgate (stupid molding). The interior has no tears and the front seats are still firm with nice bolsters but could use some attention.

It has heated seats, tracs, dolby pro logic, and every other option these cars came with.

Wed, Jan 13 2016

The Lexus LC 500 captured top honors for the best-designed production car and the best interior at the 10th annual EyesOn Design awards at the Detroit Auto Show. The awards are handed out by the Detroit Institute of Ophthalmology. The Buick Avista won the concept car category, just as its four-door predecessor, the Avenir, did last year. Other winners this year included the Chrysler Pacifica, which won for the best-designed production "truck" (as crossovers and minivans are sometimes categorized), and the Audi H-Tron Quattro, which won for the best concept truck. The Acura Precision concept was also recognized for its "innovative use of color, graphics, and materials." And the new Volvo S90 was singled out for its human-machine interface. The panel of jurists this year included designers from an array of automakers and art schools. Several past honorees for the organization's LifeTime Design Achievement Award participated in the voting, including GM's Wayne Cherry, BMW DesignworksUSA founder Chuck Pelly, Hyundai's Peter Schreyer, and Jack Telnack (formerly of Ford). Telnack also served on the select panel of chief judges this year, alongside Chris Chapman from Hyundai, Dave Marek from Acura, and Stewart Reed from the Art Center College of Design. Lexus Takes 2 and Buick Wins Best Concept For 2nd Year at EyesOn Design Awards at NAIAS January 12, 2016, Detroit, Michigan.
