Volvo S60 R-Design

February 26, 2024

The Story

Needed a fun daily I could drive from San Diego to LA in. Almost bought another Mercedes, but then saw this 2013 S60 R-Design with low mileage. Test drove it solo ?, immediately fell in love. Polestar tuned I6 Turbo, AWD, 325hp 355tq… It competes with things like the Audi S4, but I’m building it to target the RS4. It is my daily, so it’s a slower process, but the end goal is ~420hp/450tq … which can be had with stock internals and turbo, few bolt-ons, and a mild tune.
