Saw this on Sunday evening along Boundary Road.

 

A volvo S40 was following a new Lexus GS300 who was speeding away. The GS300 driver was driver (1st car) at a traffic light on extreme right and the volvo was behind. When the light turned green, the GS300 floored the accelerator. But after 50metres, see the volvo overtake the GS300 on the left and sped off.

 

The S40 that fast meh? Thought the GS300 can do 0-100 in 7.5s, somemore V6 engine. Don't know if the volvo is T5 cos too fast liao.

Maybe the GS300 doesnt want to overspeed too much, so let go of throttle. At the overtake pt, is the GS300 still accelerating or perhaps taper off already?

Maybe GS not WOT. This kind of encounter, only the 2 drivers know what happen actually. [;)]

Yup from what i know that the Volvo s40 is rather powerful . And some more i think that the turbo version is much more powerful man (Maybe it is the T5 version man). Somemore the i think that the volvo is the T5 version man [thumbsup][thumbsup][thumbsup] I think the Gs 300 is not flooring the acclercator because the car is new man( engine still running in ).

Just checked the stats for both cars (0-100kmh). The S40 T5 is 7.3s whereas the GS300 is 7.5s, I think GS know cannot beat T5.
