That really surprised me. I would have thought that the Volvo would fare much better than it did. I thought they had been on crumple zones and the like for many years. Apparently safety engineering has improved quite a bit.

"The LT1 is a eh corvette motor. It's computer chip, which gives it more performance than what the general public would have."

Count how many times the officer upshifts. He has GM's ultra secret 23 speed transmission.

That's just the lovely sound effects the show dubbed in. I also don't think the kid got caught - you'll notice the "breakdown" clip is the same footage as when the kid leaned on the brakes earlier, just slowed down. I think that fat, bald headed pig got outdriven by a 15 year old, and it makes me smile.

That was my point. The people who played Spy Hunter are now generally at an age and station in life where they will be looking at cars in the G8's market segment.
