Gwynn Oak, Maryland, United States

For sale is a 2001 Volvo S80, loaded with luxury features like Heated seats, Sunroof, Leather seats, Dual zone climate control etc. The car runs smooth with strong engine and transmission. All maintenance done on time. It was my commuter car with all highway driving. Non smoker, clean.

THE GOOD:
All new front and rear Struts and Shocks.
All new brakes and rotors (all four wheels and parking brakes too)
Timing belt and water pump was just replaced six months ago.
Tune up done 3 months ago with 6 new plugs and synthetic oil change and filters. Transmission fluid was also flushed.
New Control arms and tie rods.
All new tires with alignment done 3 months ago.
No Check engine light or any mechanical problems.
Unlike the turbo, this non-turbo version is free of trouble and easy maintenance. 

The bad:
A/C works well when recharged, but leaks some place. You can drive it till the next summer before needing A/C, dual zone heat and seat heaters works great.
Driver leather seat is cracked and torn, I put a cover to make it look nice. Rear leather seats are ok.
Info screen shows seat belt related errors, but that doesn't affect the working. It just needs the dealer to reset the error, happened because I unplugged the wire connector under the seat accidentally while vacuuming.

Bottom-line it is a great reliable car that will last many years without needing anything. I have replaced almost everything that you can ask for. I was planning on keeping it for a long time, but ended up buying a new car. My loss your gain. If you have back problem or simply need a comfy reliable car, this would be a great pick. You are getting a once used to be 40,000 dollar flagship car for super cheap name your own price. I can answer all your questions. Car sold as is, No warranties. Please don't bid if you don't have the means to pay or come pickup the car. I will only ship the car if you can arrange the shipper to pick up on a weekend. Thanks.

Limited-edition Volvo S60 Polestar priced at $59,300*, V60 at $60,900*

Fri, 01 Aug 2014

You saw their US reveal at this year's Chicago Auto Show and read our driving impressions from Sweden. Now, if you act fast, you can actually own one of the very limited 2015.5 Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar models coming to the United States. The order page for these slick Swedes is now online, but the slots are filling up about as quickly as these cars accelerate.
Volvo plans to build a combined 750 of these Polestar models for the world, but the US is being allocated just 120 of them. Prices start at $59,300 for the S60 or $60,900 for the V60 (*plus a $925 destination charge). The only option is color - either Black Sapphire or Rebel Blue. If rarity is playing a part in your decision, you might want to pick the S60. According to the reservation site, only 20 of the sedans in each color are making it over here; the rest are V60s.
As the top versions of their respective models, both Polestars are packed with features. They share a turbocharged, 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine rated at 345 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque with a six-speed automatic transmission and a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system. Acceleration to 60 miles per hour is claimed to take 4.7 seconds for the S60 or a tenth more for the V60 with a top speed of 155 mph. They are about more than just a hotter engine, though, with Öhlins shocks, six-piston brake calipers and 20-inch Polestar wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. Check out the gallery for the full, official specs, and get to the order page soon, if you decide you need one of these limited Swedish sportsters.

Volvo launches next-gen Sensus Connect infotainment system [w/videos]

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

To borrow a line from another automaker, the Volvo S60 has the power to surprise - it's likely not top of mind for most entry-level luxury sedan buyers, but it's good enough that it probably should be. There's long been one pretty serious chink in its armor, though, and that goes for the company's entire model line: infotainment. The Swedish marque's offerings just haven't been that feature-rich, but Volvo is working to improve things with its updated Sensus Connect, a suite of functions just launched at this week's CES in Las Vegas.
The new system updates center on cloud-based connectivity advancements that include a novel Park&Pay feature that allows drivers to search for parking and pay for their space from the comfort of their car. Other functions that show off the diversity of Sensus Connect include embedded, Pandora-streaming internet radio, Wikipedia, remote start via smart phone, dealer appointment booking, destination attraction searches and an available wifi hotspot.
All of this increased functionality sounds like a big step in the right direction, and Volvo is noting it has refreshed the system's interface with "graphically themed center and driver displays" along with improved voice control and text-to-speech capabilities.

Volvo won't go after S-Class, 7 Series market

Mon, 22 Apr 2013

Volvo vice president of powertrain engineering, Derek Crabb, recently said that the Swedish automaker is developing smaller and smarter powertrain options that will "turn V8s into dinosaurs" - a statement that could have been our first indication that Volvo is no longer looking to create a luxury flagship sedan to take on German land yachts like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series. Now Automotive News seems to be backing this up after speaking with CEO Hakan Samuelsson, who said that a big sedan wouldn't fit the brand's green image and, more importantly, might not even be a car that its customers would even consider.
Rather than trying to compete in a small, established market against rear-drive, 12-cylinder sedans, Volvo is looking at the emerging, higher-volume premium small car segment to take on its German rivals with the all-new Volvo V40 (shown above). Not wanting to abandon the big-vehicle segment altogether, a next-generation XC90 is due out within the next couple years (and was spotted in some recent spy shots), and it will ride on the new Scalable Platform Architecture (SPA), which will be shared with the new S80 according to the AN article.
