    It's a pity my Blackberry doesn't have a camera function. Yesterday I saw a very attractive, clean, and shiny black Hyundai Genesis sedan at a red light. It was very elegant looking. So elegant, in fact, that it had winged 'B' Bentley badges. One on the hood just above the grille and another replacing the 'H' badge on the decklid. Any Hyundai badges to signify model or engine size had been removed so it was well-thought-out rice. You stay classy, New Jersey.

    "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges! I don't have to show you any stinkin' badges!"

  • Brendan Duddy soon we'll see lawyers advertising big payout$ after getting injured by a 'rogue' vehicle
  • Zerofoo @VoGhost - The earth is in a 12,000 year long warming cycle. Before that most of North America was covered by a glacier 2 miles thick in some places. Where did that glacier go? Industrial CO2 emissions didn't cause the melt. Climate change frauds have done a masterful job correlating .04% of our atmosphere with a 12,000 year warming trend and then blaming human industrial activity for something that long predates those human activities. Human caused climate change is a lie.
  • Probert They already have hybrids, but these won't ever be them as they are built on the modular E-GMP skateboard.
  • Justin You guys still looking for that sportbak? I just saw one on the Facebook marketplace in Arizona
  • 28-Cars-Later I cannot remember what happens now, but there are whiteblocks in this period which develop a "tick" like sound which indicates they are toast (maybe head gasket?). Ten or so years ago I looked at an '03 or '04 S60 (I forget why) and I brought my Volvo indy along to tell me if it was worth my time - it ticked and that's when I learned this. This XC90 is probably worth about $300 as it sits, not kidding, and it will cost you conservatively $2500 for an engine swap (all the ones I see on car-part.com have north of 130K miles starting at $1,100 and that's not including freight to a shop, shop labor, other internals to do such as timing belt while engine out etc).
