To a radar gun a Porsche 944 and a Volvo 740 Turbo Wagon look exactly the same.

To a radar gun they look exactly the same. Forget the fact that the car on the left is a legendary performance car. And that the one on the right is a wagon. A radar gun doesn´t notice minor details like that. It focuses on only one thing: speed. And from that point of view, the Porsche 944 and the Volvo 740 Turbo Wagon look remarkably similar. In fact, in repeated quarter-mile tests, they came up with virtually identical numbers - both in elapsed time and miles-per-hour. In 0-60 tests, the Volvo Wagon actually came out ahead the Porsche. Which is no small feat for any car, much less a wagon. It´s no wonder Road & Track magazine called the 740 Turbo Wagon the closest thing to a five-door sports car. Which all goes to prove that the Volvo 740 Turbo Wagon is something very rare indeed. A wagon that´s actually worth owning for what it packs up front. Volvo. A car you can believe in.
