I went and got the Volvo today, it looks amazing in person, the interior is probably the most impressive aspect, but the whole vehicle looks incredible. Jim replaced some boost hose that was sucking shut in some circumstances and reset the ECU, it's re-learned and the same map is now faster, which is entertaining.
I then drove the Porsche into town and back again, it is slower, but it's so much more direct, more immediate, even if it lacks the visceral (oh fuck OH FUCK OH FUCK) of the Volvo as it comes on boost and really starts hauling. I really like the 911, it's huge fun to punt around in.
