OK so I've got a 240 Wagon DL 5sp. I put a Turbo exhaust and a K&N it's well tuned and running pretty good. Suspension is upgraded so it handles pretty well too.
But from a dead start it's still kind of a dog, I'm not complaining mind you, I'm not a boy racer trying to see how fast I can get to the next stop sign. But...If I go 2 days without getting flipped off by some impatient escortcorollacivicbubbapickup driver; its because I didn't drive my Volvo one of those days. EVERY TIME, someone is behind me and I apparently am to slow to be on the road. They ride my ass unitll they can get around me, then on the way past they're waving the finger as if I'm deliberately trying to make them late for the next red light, bugger!
Now, recently I've gotten some pleasure from this. My question to them is-would you like to play bumper cars Mrs. Pepsi-can-on-wheels. Having a slow car really helps the blood pressure, I can't catch-em so just laugh at-em.
Of course if I were in my TDI.....they would get smoked.
