Hello!

Up for sale is my 2005 Volvo S40 T5. The car runs perfectly and will do so for years to come. As is always the case with Volvo, safety is paramount, so rest assured that even the newest of drivers will be safe behind the wheel! The car has 70,600 miles on it and looks brand new inside and out. No accidents whatsoever. Never been smoked in. All maintenance was done at my local Volvo dealer until the last oil change, which I did myself

I bought the car in '08 straight off of lease with the CPO warranty. Under warranty, I had the PCV system replaced, the AC compressor replaced and the entire starter system replaced (not sure why they thought replacing the whole system was the way to go... but it wasn't my money!)

Factory options were:

Electric Silver Paint / Dark Gray Leather Interior
Geartronic Transmission
Factory Sport Body Kit with Rear Spoiler
Xenon Headlamps
Heated Seats
Premium Audio with 6 Disc Changer
OEM Sport Suspension

All of the modifications done to the car were done by a local shop in Redondo Beach. I understand that there are a lot of parts on here, but I have most of the stock parts that can be included with the sale if the buyer would like to return anything to stock. For those interested, the modifications are:

K&N Typhoon Intake, Custom 3" High Flow Turbo Downpipe, Custom 3" Magnaflow Cat Back, Evolve 25mm Sway Bar, Eurosport Tuning Strut Brace, Evolve FMIC, HD Turbo Control Valve from IPD, RICA Tuning ECU Software (91 Octane, CARB legal), ELEVATE Intake Plenum, VibraTechnics Lower Engine Mount, Forge Diverter Valve with High Boost Spring, Eibach Pro Kit (Lowering Coils), Koni Yellow Sport Shocks/Strust (Installed less than 500 miles ago), Elevate Slotted Rotors (F/R), PosiQuiet Ceramic Brake Pads, OEM Sport Pedals, OEM Sport Aluminum Shift Knob, OEM Sport Aluminum Steering Wheel, Evolve Dead Pedal, OEM Volvo Subwoofer, Volvo Garmin Dash Mounted Navigation, Full Tint, Color Matched Headlight Eyebrows by Individual, Color Matched Rear Widow Spoiler, HID Fog Light Conversion, Tinted Taillights, Evolve M10's (19x8.5 all around)

Given the condition of the car and the care that I've put into it, $15k would be ideal, but I'm open to hear offers! Shipping will be on the buyer, but I can bring the car somewhere local for loading if that would help. Thanks for looking!

Why this could be the perfect time for Apple to make a car play

Fri, Aug 31 2018

While the automotive and technology worlds have been pouring billions into autonomous vehicles (AVs) and preparing to bring them to market soon as shared robo-taxis, Apple has mostly sat on the sidelines. Of course, Apple is the last company to ever make its intentions known, and the super-secret tech cult giant hasn't been totally out of the AV game based on the clues that have slipped out of its Cupertino, Calif., citadel over the past few years. Related: Apple self-driving cars are real — one was just in an accident News first broke in 2015 that it had assembled an automotive development team, in part by poaching high-profile talent from car companies, to work on a top-secret self-driving vehicle project code-named Titan. (Thank you very much, Nissan.) Apple also subsequently broke cover by making inquiries into using a Northern California AV testing facility and receiving a permit to test AVs on public roads in California. But then as the AV race started to heat up in the last few years, Apple reportedly began scaling back its car activities by downsizing team Titan. More recently, Apple's car project has shown signs of life with the hiring a high-level engineer away from Waymo and luring one Tesla's top engineers and a former employee back to Apple. It also inked a deal with Volkswagen to provide a technology platform and software to convert the automaker's new T6 Transporter vans into autonomous shuttles for employees at tech company's new campus. That is a far cry from giving rides to Wal-Mart shoppers, like Waymo is doing as part of its AV testing in Phoenix. But this could be the perfect time for Apple to enter the AV market now that ride-sharing is reaching critical mass and automakers and others are planning to deploy fleets of robo-taxis. Apple could easily establish a niche as a high-end ride-sharing service – and charge a premium – given its cult-like brand loyalty and design savvy. The growth of car subscription models could also play in Apple's favor since is already has many people hooked on paying for phones in monthly installments – and eager to upgrade when a new and better model becomes available. To achieve this, some believe Apple will fulfill co-founder and CEO Steve Job's dream of building a car. And as the world's first and only $1 trillion company it's sitting on a mountain of cash that certainly gives it the means. But other tech darlings like Tesla and Google have discovered how difficult it can be to build cars at scale.

Volvo studying test of electric roads in Sweden

Tue, 27 May 2014

Volvo already announced the results of a study of wireless charging using a stationary C30, and now it's embarking on a more ambitious study of wireless charging involving moving city buses. Next year, in conjunction with the Swedish Transport Association, Volvo will build a section of electric road up to 500 meters long that would use inductive charging to refill the batteries while the bus drives over it.
Right now, the company's Hyper Bus diesel hybrid has to stop to plug in and charge at the end of its route. The company is looking for a way to keep buses in service while being able to run on electric power for greater lengths of time. The new line used for the study will be called ElectriCity, and will come online in central Gothenburg sometime in 2015. There's a press release below with more information.

Volvo Concept Coupe is a long-legged Swedish GT [w/video]

Tue, 10 Sep 2013

They may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the marque, but Volvo has a long and surprisingly lustrous lineage of coupes in its stable, from the P1800 to the 142 to the Bertone 262C to the 780 Bertone and the recently departed C70. Few of those two-doors have stood the test of time the way the voluptuous P1800 has, a fact the company's designers are apparently keenly aware of. It is that exact model that Volvo says they've drawn upon for this new Concept Coupe, and while the showcar bears little resemblance to the smaller P1800 that inspired it, both cars have a visual grace and presence that has often eluded the brand's grasp.
While not completely ripping up the design language established by the 2001 S60 in 2000, the Coupe Concept is arguably the most radical design statement we've seen from Volvo in well over a decade. Gone is the tone set by the drop-shoulder hood, and in its place is a more flowing, organic look, with the generous proportions of a grand tourer. The concept is a particularly nice piece of work, from its new T-shaped daytime running lamps to its pronounced rear fenders that subtly echo those of the P1800. Interestingly, Volvo informs that the first production model to benefit from this new aesthetic will be the next-generation XC90 crossover - and judging by the teasers we recently saw, this language looks like it'll translate nicely to the CUV's larger shape.
The Concept Coupe is powered by a through-the-road plug-in hybrid architecture composed of a twincharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder powering the front wheels and an electric motor servicing the rears. All-in, Volvo says the system is good for 400 horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque.
