Pontiac Grand Prix Forums : Grandprix

About 30 minutes ago I got my a** handed to me by a volvo s40. I would say it was a 2005-2007. It was the Turbo (i could hear it) and manual. Pushing out 218hp.

We were both dead even and stomped on it at 40mph (i know not a good spot for me). we hung for about 3 seconds, he slightly started pulling then all of sudden jetted forward so fast It looked like I was standing still. My jaw dropped.

I raced a 2007 volvo s60 T5 powered with a turbo 257hp engine and we would be neck and neck with me pulling on him at about 70mph. Did that 3 times in a row.

So, either something is wrong with my car or this s40 i ran into tonight was seriously modded. I don't know what the s40 engine sounds like but I could just tell that had some things done to it.

It was still fun.

nawzzz. ha idk it kinda sounds like it tho...maybe upgraded turbo ..??..

Volvo's can be sleepers like the gp's...just make sure its not a hot soccer mom lol

Yea volvo's are fast and they are defently underestimated like our cars, some people just don't expect it.

I know this is a grandprix forum in all but i'd like to show you my favorite volvo that i wouldn't mind owning, I'd never give my gp up for a volvo just to let you all know lol.
It's a volvo c70 coupe and i just like the way it looks, and i love the rims, they are stock btw. I saw one just like this one in a parking lot once and they are just beautiful.
