^ Agreed sir.

And what reason do I have for exceeding the posted speed limit? I have cruise control for a fairly good reason I suspect.

oh, come on BaTu, run your automotive scuderia by us. Would like to know how you supplement the driving thrills a STS provides!

Man, this thread is serious.

BaTu, please tell us about these "other cars" that are in your scuderia! We are all waiting with bated breath so please post some pictures. So far all we've heard is what sounds like adolescent (no offense to our teenage members) bravado and nonsense.

Yeh,I agree,everyone loves their caddies,but I always felt the members
were always open minded enough to realize cadillac isn't the only car in this world.

Oh, I for sure realize that. I think I can honestly name a car from nearly every manufacturer that I like. At least one.

Not all Volvos are for pussies. This one (modded heavily, 530 HP) takes skill and brass balls to fully use!

The car is in SERIOUS need of better traction. 8.0 1/8 mile @ 155kph (97mph), traction limited.

And it's RWD.... fun!

The only Volvo feature worth mentioning is the little windowshade like deal that pulls up in front of the radiator when you pull on the bath tub chain that comes out of the instrument panel on a P544. It helps to keep the engine temps up when it's -40F.

Stingroo · #58 (**permalink**) 10-30-09, 11:30 PM

That's pretty clever.

Also -- and I really don't know if they were the first to do this, but they were the first car I had ever seen with them -- the wiper blades on the headlights are pretty awesome too.

The heartbeat monitor would be a great feature for the mobster trying to avoid becoming like Carlo Rizzi(the guy strangled in the car at the end of the Godfather).
