R4Life Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 I was driving my friends MY96 960 today and man does that thing turn. I have never driven a car with that tight of a turning radius not even my 90 Prelude with 4WS so I looked it up; 31ft.Can you say D A M N ?!

connorb850 Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Haha yeah, most of the older RWD Volvos are like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebor Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Yeah, I went from a 960 to an s70. It's horrible.For reference, check out the circle on a Porsche 911. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshV70 Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 It's pretty amazing that the steering actually turns on the RWD Volvo's huh?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PyROTech Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 i had a 960 and i loved to mess with people b/c it had the nice turn r. When reaching a dead end street on my way to work to turn around i would turn inside someone else already making a uturn and see the look on there face.

yangotang Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 Don't complain about the turning radius on the 850/s70 until you have driven an S60. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaC70 Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 RWD has a MUCH better turing radius than FWD...MUCH BETTER!!!!There was this one time in band camp, I turned a 940 into itself and created a black hole......... :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteT5 Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Hey, who wants to be a guinea pig? Go cut your steering stops off and tell us what your new turning radius is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
