It could be Canadian but on most of the Canadian imports the HVAC temp dials read in Celsius. It could also be that the person importing it was really picky and changed the faceplate.

It seems to have been picked through for a lot of the good bits. I just hit him up for the front grill and roof rail trim - no dice.

I talked to them a few weeks ago. It needs a timing belt but it does have that really nice woodgrain dash, lol.:facepalm:

Those wheels are pretty hideous too.

"Long time listener, first time caller" ... sure thing Gary. You should buy that car, time to get a few more P2's in your signature ;)

That's a rare bird right there, if only it had a 3rd pedal. Still, very cool.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but mini-wagon/wang meet at Legal Sea Foods in Boston last night. Oh wait....skywolf doesn't have a wang for his mini-wagon yet....



There was a short cruise and photo shoot after dinner

No wang on the miniwagon yet.

Boston was cool. jppeterson and I took the Acela from New York up there. The Acela was an item on my bucket list (I love trains).

Next up on my list is Chicago.

Extremely clean 2010 XC90 V8 Executive

https://tulsa.craigslist.org/cto/d/2010-volvo-xc90-v8-executive/6740857711.html

Not mine but I know the owner. He is OCD about preventative maintenance. I never had the privilege of test driving an XC90 V8 when they were new but if I did I'm pretty sure this is how they would ride. It is immaculate. Seriously if you want the best V8 in the country you can fly in and drive out, this is it. It is worth every bit of the price.

Ambitious price since the average private party blue book is 10K.

well mine sold in 2 days from listing. I expect this one to sell in a week unless he is super motivated and gets crazy aggressive on price. I doubt it though.

having moved from a V8 Exec to a Polestar, I can tell you there are a lot of things still very desirable in a V8. If the V8 had Polestar power I'd still have mine. unfortunately V8s have very limited tuning options with a bad $/hp ratio for gains.
