But in many ways, the Corvette was a much safer car, particularly in terms of active safety. The Corvette could stop in a much shorter distance for example, not to mention corner more capably. It also had an airbag and ABS, just like the Volvo. ------------------------ Clip ------------------------------------ I opted to sell my 365 HP 327 CUI 68 Corvette L82 rather than quit drinking. (That was in 1973) Possibly Volvo drivers don't drink as much as Corvette drivers.
