This weekend I went and visited my dad and he had gotten his new Volvo XC90. Its a really nice car actually, I prefer it over his X5, tho its not the new version X5.
But I miss driving the Bentley Continental GT V8 he had... Tunnels + V8 = fun

From some angles the new Continental looks good, but from others it looks like a 300.

The Bentley designer decided it was a rip-off of the Flying Spur, to the point that he offered to send Ford the tooling.

Yes. Lincoln is trying to make a push in China, and apparently they don't particularly care about MKBlah. As opposed to Americans, who are SUPER enthused by their MKBlahs.

I wonder if that's a sign of the apocalypse.  I think it was just after the armored locusts.  I need to check Revelation again.   :&

I don't see a golden dragon anywhere. No one in China will buy that.
