Quick VOLVO???
 

I was wondering if there was a new style Volvo that is surprisingly quick, at least to me and my 202rwhp vert :-)

I was merging onto a straight two-lane road from a very short merge lane. When it was clear, I got on it pretty hard, caught second, and continued to accellerate through third...I was looking in my rear-view and saw a silver car pretty much keeping up with me. I hit some traffic and started to slow around 75mph, and when the car eventually passed me it looked like a new style Volvo!

Wow, I guess I need to put the crowbar in my wallet and come up with some heads or a blower to fend off these pesky Volvo's!

I am sure you will get a kick out of this EZRIDN :-)

some quick volvos
 

i had a friend run his moms volvo with the boost way up and beat eclipses and v-6 camaro's. they are all turbo and most have some kind of traction control. its possible. 200 horsepower. easily.

LOL........No man its all good. Its all in fun to run people you know what i mean. Keep that stang running good.

BTW, i am from Va. I grew up in Roanoke, and Charlottesville. My family is still there and i visit quite often.

EZRIDN - that's cool. I live near Dulles Airport (too near Dulles Airport some days!).

how much for your 86?
 

you really wanna sell the 86? could you pm me and let me know. thanks.

EZRIDN, you grew up in Roanoke? Very pretty area. My company has a factory there, very nice area.

I have a friend who has a newer Volvo and it moves pretty good. It's no match for my mustang, but I could see it taking V6 Camaros, Mustangs and any ricer. I think it was rated at 250 HP or something. The car is pretty heavy though, so that's why it's not faster off the line.

Hammer and I saw a Volvo running at the 1/8th mile track running 6's and low low 7's. It was definately not stock (the engine came up through a hole in the hood :) ).

Sweet? Do you ever go there for trips? Let me know.
