Actually, the 308 can be pretty quick off a standing start, but I take it easy because I don't want to replace another clutch. $$$$
The SUV in the background is mine as well. It's a 2008 Saturn Vue 'redline edition', which has basically every possible option you could get. I bought it when it came off an executive lease in 2011. It has a 240-hp turbo V6, and is very quick. Even at freeway speeds, if you nail it there's this Star Trek moment of a slight pause, and then WARP SPEED!
