Its one thing to see one or two kind of odd or obscure cars on the road. Its another thing to see a lot of them all at once.

Many Astons

Much V90s

Very XC60s

Plenty XC90s

Broken Vulva hybrid with its butt hanging out.

The S90 is long as hell

And the rear is roomy

And finally, the highlight of my visit.

Hat tip to “friend with benefits” who let me in lol

Trip over that trickle charger cord. Then ask for a 3 year lease on an Aston as settlement.

Win.

I might as well ask for a 3 month lease after doing that lol

I’d already have embarrassed myself enough to get away with crazier requests.

Beautiful. But, why is every car in the entire place white, black, or gray except for two Lotuses?

I have no clue.

Volvo’s color palette is pretty drab, save for that kick ass blue.

And maybe the dealership was hedging their bets by keeping Astons with safe colors ready to sell, as opposed to the custom $5k demerara sugar cystal bronze paint scheme?

In Scottsdale they street park this stuff.

I wonder if it’s because everyone is worried about resale. I dunno, first world problems, I guess.

A cursory search shows that all 2018- models of the S90 for the U.S. are actually LWB versions (S90 L), but badged only as the S90. If that’s a 2018, it explains the extended-looking length and the rear legroom.

Yeah, they have been making them longer and longer.

I guess the LWB became a thing for the Chinese market and I guess Volvo doesnt want two models (regular and LWB) in the same US market.

If I were to buy an Aston, which I wouldn’t, I’d go for something that wakes people up (with the color, not just the noise).

Like a BMW Technoviolet-esque color or a copper tone.

Well I would buy an Aston, and I also would choose something memorable.
