Impossible, what happened to our "all electric" future by 2030? I wonder what next "evil" surprise volvo will make..likely will decide to resurect wagons and start to put analog gauges and buttons to control climate unit? The only thing that can trump that is a 5cyl engine mated to 5 speed manual.

This was the pinnacle of automobiles. This was the peak, the crest, the shining city on the hill.

Then we flew too close to the sun. Look at this and tell me I'm wrong:
