    A few of the comments that stood out to us yesterday:

    “When I bought my ’23 XC60 T8 through Volvo’s Overseas Delivery program, the V60 was not offered, else I would’ve bought it. I sprung for the Polestar engineered upgrade and extended range battery (up to 50 miles on a charge), as well as air suspension (that lowers the car about 3 inches when I click “Polestar Mode.” Just here to say that this drivetrain — super charger +turbo + electric motor + Polestar tuning is absolutely mad! Mine kicks out 455 bhp and is just so damn fun to drive. Passing…”

    “This generation of Mondial is SO easy and inexpensive to maintain. Belt replacement is engine in, same for the clutch. This should be emphasized because in the Ferrari world, this is unusual.”

    “This gem is coming from a great owner and I hope it remains just as well loved by its next caretaker. Good luck all!
    @Valiantjim I have the first SPEED World Challenge SRT-4 that 3R Racing campaigned in 05/06. I have good memories from those days.”

    “A Volvo PV544 has been my dream car since I was a teenager. I belong to a women’s vintage car club here on the CA Central Coast called the Highway Honeys. “Lemondrop” as I am calling this beauty would be a perfect addition to my life!”

    “A rare Terminator here. Only 610 Redfire ‘verts rolled off the assembly line in ’03, and only 196 of those had the Parchment Suede seat inserts. GLWA!”

    “Great spot on the 2022 gearbox oil typo.
    Our technicians during that time and during 2023 and 2021 records are all former trained factory Lamborghini guys. You can look them up!
    As you can see both Motul and Lucas gear oil was used in 2021 and 2023, so I am very confident this is a “ShopWare” typo.
    Our software system in the shop was very clunky until recently.
    The former owner was very fussy, this is one of the best 1996-1997 Diablo Roadster examples we have seen. The car was…”

    “I am the previous of this car and I knew the engineer that built the car. The builder was a very talented engineer and sadly he passed away. I knew the car and I bought it from his estate. The car is a blast to drive and I will miss it. The only reason I have for selling it is that I am getting old and I still have a bucket list of cars that I would like to own before it is too late. I am sure that the new owner of this car will get a lot of enjoyment out of it.”

    “It is a particular pleasure to make comments about this particular alloy engine . disc brake 300SL Roadster. 210 of the total of 1958 300SL Roadsters manufactured between ’57-’63 had the lower weight alloy block engines. These were produced from 3/62 through 2/8/63. The factory built an initial run of 229 numbered alloy block engines, all in 1962, 19 of which were “spares” I owned a number of this variety of 300SL RO’s including this one from ’89-’98. As I recall it was completed in the…”

    “My wife & I got married in July 1978. We packed her little red Chevette to the hilt with all of our wedding gifts and drove from Chicago to Houston with only gas stops along the way. Took us 24 hours! After a few years the drivers floor pan rusted through. A sheet of 3/8 plywood cut to size fixed that. It was no longer the Fred Flintstone mobile! Also had a problem with the horn button. Every time we would turn the wheel to take a corner the horn would honk. NO PROBLEM! We would wave at…”

    “A turquoise R2 4-speed is the quentessential Avanti and very few other cars for the same money will draw more attention.
    However, been so long since I have seen an Avanti MSRP window sticker, I’d forgotten Studebaker had the unmitigated gall to ding the buyer $20 for TV advertising and $50 for Metro advertising. Go figure!
    I bow to no man in my love for the Avanti, but it was always costly and this just seems to be added insult to injury.

    “I’ll tell you, when I was a kid in the ‘80s I thought the two coolest cars in existence were the Countach and the 928. I held them in almost equal regard. I’m happy to see a pinnacle 928 getting the love!”

    “I love vintage Ferraris. Thought I would get a late 70’s or early 80’s 308GTB but last year became smitten when this came and went:
    https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1978-ferrari-308-gt4-8-2/
    This will be very well taken care of. Going in the garage the second it arrives and will be driven enough to enjoy and still preserve the integrity of the car.”

    “@jtzer I was the founder of Classic Promenade and sold the dealership to two young, smart and hard-working couples on June 30th. I completely inspected this Bentley and drove it extensively in June, even in the 100 plus F temperatures in Phoenix. (I’m a senior RROC and concours judge). It essentially drives as a new S1 Continental. I am now in Lucerne, Switzerland driving our R-Type Mulliner Lightweight Saloon for two months from Ireland to Tuscany and back. Cheers and best of luck to the…”

    “Awesome! Looking forward to it. Sadly, my wife passed away a couple of weeks ago from a long fight with breast cancer. I have two 1984 533i’s one is a parts car, the other is a work in progress, and I have spent so much time and money working on it that I simply don’t want the hassle any longer. I have always wanted the original M5, and my wife would be happy that I made that dream a reality. So looking forward to it!!”

    “The rarity of the M81 McLaren Mustang DSO kit cannot be overstated. Maybe 20 were made in addition to the 10 M81 McLaren Mustang prototypes. Of the DSOs on the road, I know of maybe 5. I own one which is currently on display at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. Added note, the rear GT Enduro spoiler is even more rare.”
