two quick questions, asked in utter desperation...

Okay, so I'm doing the UAR bonus quiz, and I'm paralyzed by indecision on two of the answers. So, here are my questions, for anyone who may know...

UPDATE: I went with the 1960 Volvo, which maybe I shouldn't have, because our final score was 78% (30/38 answers). This quiz was really, REALLY hard compared to last year's, though, so maybe that'll still be enough to get us into the 1st or 2nd start wave. Aw well, what's done is done...we did the best we could.

  1. How can you tell the difference between a 1960 Volvo Amazon/122 model and a 1966 model? And did Volvo change their color selections from year to year in the 60s (like, did they only offer sky-blue Amazons every 3 years, or whatever)?

  2. How do "points of interest" on car navigation systems work, particularly DVD-based systems? Do they include ALL business listings, or just listings that may be of some use to the traveler? I'm inclined to think the latter, or you'd need a helluva lot more than 2 DVDs to hold all of US and Canada.

So, if anyone knows the answer to either of these questions (or has better luck looking them up than I did), pleeeeease comment. After researching 20 of the most convoluted pop-culture, web-scavenger-hunt questions in the universe, my brain is dead.
