Eleven Billion Reasons Volvo has a Fighting Chance
Eleven Billion Reasons Volvo has a Fighting Chance - Automobile Magazine
What a difference a few years make.

There has been a dearth of news—good or bad—out of the iconic Swedish brand since Ford sold to it Geely more than three years ago in a $1.8 billion deal. Frankly, the future didn’t look very bright back then. Ford had tried and failed for years to make the brand more competitive. Geely’s prospects hardly seemed much better.

The Year in Minutiae - Automobile Magazine

I suffer from the not-uncommon tendency to fixate on what's new and what's next. In the realm of cars, the steady drip of ever-better machines induces the proclivity to gaze longingly at renderings of the next best things while sometimes glossing over the oddball machines and entertaining details that are here right now. Let us then take a short break from daydreaming of turbo BMW M4s and sort-of-affordable Alfa Romeos to revisit some of 2013's more esoteric encounters.
