50-80 MPH... INCREDIBLE!

2000 Viggen (stock)--
On several different days (& on the right road) I've tried this. Steady 50mph in 3rd gear, then floor it and count. Granted this is a crude as Texas tea, but I count a consistent "1-thousand-5" from 50-80mph. The Viggen's nose is lifted upward and I'm pushed back in my seat the whole way. What a ride.
Tried same thing w/my old 427 Corvette this morning. OK, the Vette is a tad quicker, but it's thrilling & amazing to think this 4 cyl, 5-door, 28mpg daily driver can come this close to the accelerative pull of a 7-litre, 2 seater, dedicated performance machine. Hats off to Saab!
