1998 Volvo S90 Sedan, 4-door, 2.9l 6 Cyl, Automatic, Silver (960) Nice! on 2040-cars
Frazeysburg, Ohio, United States
Up for bidding is my 1998 Volvo S90 sedan in silver.
Arguably one of the best Volvo models ever made, this was the last model year
for this series.
This one’s clock is at just under 167k original, actual miles. With the 2.9L bulletproof straight 6 engine, it’s barely broken in! The previous owner's parents bought it certified pre-owned from MAG Volvo in Dublin, Ohio, then later passed it on to him and his wife who recently downgraded to a minivan due to kids. That makes it over a decade of staying within one family. Options on this vehicle: premium sound system
(AM/FM/CD/Cassette), full gray leather interior, power sunroof, front + side
airbags, power windows/seats/locks/mirrors, cruise, alloy wheels, ABS, winter
and sport transmission modes, and much, much more. I have attached 46 pictures in an imgur album. If you would like a picture of something more up close, feel free to ask and I’ll take it for you.

Please send a $250 nonrefundable deposit via PayPal within 48 hours, with the remainder due via cash or direct bank wire transfer within 14 days. Can arrange to ship or pick you up at CMH airport if needed. I may also be able to deliver depending on the circumstances. I am a private owner and not a dealer like many sellers here on eBay, so there will be no surprise doc fees. Thanks for looking!
ATTENTION BIDDERS WITH LESS THAN 5 FEEDBACK: Please give me a call before putting in a bid on the car so that I know you are serious. If you fail to do this I will unfortunately have to cancel your bid. I appreciate everyone’s understanding. Thank you! |

Volvo uncovers widespread cheating by its Chinese dealers
Tue, 26 Mar 2013According to a report in Reuters, the findings of an internal investigation conducted by Geely-owned Volvo is that its Chinese dealers vastly overreported their sales numbers in 2011, then even more vastly underreported their 2012 sales figures. About "half the dealers" out of the 151 total outlets gamed the system in order to get incentives for reaching volume objectives, falsely recording about 7,000 more units sold than was actually the case. Instead of 47,140 cars sold in China in 2011, the real number should have been 39,871.
Volvo corporate books a sale once it ships a car to a dealer, so that meant there were 7,000 more cars in inventory than there should have been. To restore the balance, the dealers underreported their 2012 sales while they unloaded those extra cars since, naturally, they couldn't claim the sale again. That made it look like sales declined by 11 percent in 2012, even though they actually increased year-on-year. The adjusted sales number for 2012 totalled 45,896.
Volvo has met with its dealers and told them to stop the deceitful practice. The discrepancies weren't so great that the company plans to restate its historic numbers, but from now on, it apparently plans to occasionally check inventory to make sure the numbers match and that it has a true picture of how individual models are selling.
Volvo debuts new Drive-E four-cylinder engines
Fri, 16 Aug 2013
Volvo is introducing a new engine family based on its new Drive-E philosophy, which encompasses "all innovations made to reduce the impact on the environment," the automaker says. Less cylinders allows for less environmental impact, so the new engines are all four-pots. They also were designed to pair easily with Volvo's upcoming hybrid drive system, which "will reach power figures in the V8 territory" and play a "dominant part of the top end of [Volvo's] range," says Derek Crabb, Vice President Powertrain Engineering. Volvo also says we can expect "power curves that give exciting drivability compared with engines with more cylinders."
Volvo says some versions of the engine were designed targeting best-in-class fuel economy. There are both gasoline and diesel options, but the latter of which isn't scheduled for US consumption. Instead, the US will be offered two states of tune of the gasoline Drive-E engine for front-wheel-drive vehicles. Some of Volvo's current all-wheel-drive powertrains will remain available in the US until the company has transitioned solely to the new, fuel-efficient inline-fours.

Tue, 08 Oct 2013The Swedes Bend Sixes And Fives Into Fours
With government agency pressures mounting, the auto industry's latest engine and powertrain trends invariably include the cobbling of heretofore eight-cylinder models into charged (either turbo- or super-) six-cylinder models, six-cylinders into charged four-cylinders and so on. And then there's the mating of these downsized engines to fuel-saving automatic transmissions with ratio counts previously reserved for bicycles and semi trucks. Volvo can at last follow suit with the best of Germany and Japan thanks in great part to an $11-billion multi-year investment by its Chinese owners, Geely.
After we survived the recent Frankfurt Motor Show marathon of news and reveals (chief among said bits being the stunning Volvo Concept Coupe), we were escorted by the Swedish automaker to the far less frenetic air of southern France to explore the most significant step yet in the company's new life. Volvo's entire movement of new tech is referred to as Drive-E, and it includes these all-new four-cylinder engines we just tested, a new modular architecture called Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) that will first be found under the next-generation XC90, along with a host of other onboard advancements. Think of it as a Scandinavia's version of Mazda Skyactiv, a total-systems approach to developing more efficient yet more sporting new models.
