I saw a Volvo 740 on the cover of a car mag today which accelerated faster
than a Porsche 911. I just thought, "So what?". A Porsche is a Porsche, a
Volvo is just a Volvo, no matter how fast it is (of course, this does not
include the P1800 =). There are other qualities than pure speed. If that was
the main selling point, rich people would drive dragsters.
