Cars you wouldn't have expected to be fast...
Mid 80's Dodge Colt turbo (or mitsu mirage- same car) It was about 2000lbs and suprised the crap out of every civic that pulled up next to me. The lawnmower engine sound was also a plus
i drove a Mazda speed 3 at my job the guy had a cold air intake, turbo back exhaust, and hks bov. i put in a new turbo warranty and when i went for a test drive i realized it really isnt all that fast felt like it didnt make power all the way to redline the way a SRT-4 neon does. and my 240 wasnt considered fast in the us until recent times lol 348whp+2589lbs+rwd= quick
Not anymore. He works at Modern Performance in West Long Branch NJ. I know him personally. He crashed it and totaled it. He was going to part it out, but now he may buy another Volvo and do the swap all over again. BTW he was using a T78 Turbo.

But anyone who knows a GN knows the power and power potential it has.
