I always assumed E80 Corolla 3-door. But that may be largely because my neighbor had one.

Yea, it seems to always be right there. Which makes me wonder if they have some kind of deal with the parking authorities...

I think the best bet would be to check when the street sweepers are coming through wherever it’s currently parked and try to find them then.

I see that E9 all the time! I love it. It looks like it’s at the absolute minimum level of functionality to stay ahead of the alternate side parking.

My family had one! Got it used, of course. I love when these are brought up—just wish we still had it, for the sheer ridiculousness. Read more

If you saw one with a window sticker of nearly 70, it was all dealer mark up. The Polestars come fully loaded at their base price and there are no options. Read more

Looks like it might have the grille from the GT3? That’s really all I want. Read more

Actually, after doing more research, you are mostly correct. Volvo did use a modified version of the the 1.6 EcoBoost in the current S60 but never sold in the U.S., which is why I had never considered it. So you can’t buy or drive a Volvo with an EcoBoost in the U.S., but you can in Europe. Thanks for prodding me to Read more

These Volvos are more Volvo than anything that came out from about 2003-2012. Volvo platforms, Volvo engines, etc. Seems to be the Chinese provide the cash, and then Volvo does their Volvo thing. Read more

Obviously feel bad for this guy, as I’ve been ripped off buying on craigslist as well. Read more

I wish this question was relevant to me, but I live in Manhattan and don’t have a schedule that allows me to sit in my car for 2 hours twice a week, so I’m currently spending approximately 75% of my income (pre-tax) on insurance and parking. Read more

Wait, so you can only get 1 non-AMG E in the US now? The majority of the lineup is AMG now? (Assuming E300 -> E43 -> E63) Read more

Just FYI, if you’re 30, marketers consider you a millenial (generally regarded as born between 1980 and 2000). So maybe they’re not as bad as you think...

Anyone know how long it is? I have a 2004 V70R and I don’t think I’d want something much longer...but this thing looks absolutely massive. Could just be a result of the higher belt line, though. Read more

How do you like your C70? Manual or automatic? I currently have a V70 R but will probably add a second car when I move and this is on my short list (aka the list of 100 cars I’m interested in and can ostensibly afford). Read more

Can this also be the end of the Ford/GM combined Rear/Brake/Turn lights? God I hate those. So lazy and awful. Read more
