It's all friendly, but I was just wondering if a FORD STATION WAGON, could take the beasty G35.

Guys, I have owned both. My Volvo was a S60R (05), which shares the same components as the V wagon. The wagon is almost as fast as the S, and both are faster than the G. To the guys that state massive lag above, you are wrong. Now, I didn't like the Volvo for a few different reasons, the main one being the active 4C suspension (hated it). But I'd be real careful racing them....(now with my SRT8 I don't worry about either )

Yeah, I probably should let him win. Or at least tie.
