I get the thumbs up from a charged Cobra :)

So I am driving to work at 4am and coming on to a 4 lane freeway. I see the lights behind me speed up a bit so I am thinking drop it into 3rd. So Mustang thinks he going to blow by. LOL I jump on it and keep with him and let off. He nails it at a roll of 60 so I keep with him till 100 or so and start to pull on him by about half car and he lets off. I drop down to 60 and take the next exit to work and he does to. We roll through the light and head up a hill and he pulls up and looks over at my Volvo and is thinking and gives me the The thumbs up. I get on it a little and he has his window down now and I give him the same and he nails it up the road. I thought my car was pretty quick but not that fast. I was only running 16# car was running really good too. I just love my Buick Hybrid Most people don't race a Volvo but when it keeps up with them they get scared I think

Now there's something you don't see every day. Very nice work. I'd say that's pretty close to the ultimate sleeper.

That is great. Sleeper all the way. I just have to ask..... Why that model Volvo? I would love to have one of the 850 T5R's. The station wagon is awesome.

I used to like 510s and no one had done a 2dr volvo. One of the guys I know had a 240 station wagon but no two door. I love it.

As for the links you can move around in my dir where the pictures are in my sig. I am gooing to turbo thunder in portland so we will see what 112 oct will do and 21#s.. Still Keep saving for razors kit..
