I drive a bus...the 240d is slower than a few of the busses we have in our fleet. It's faster than all our CNG busses and our 60 foot 55,000 pound articulated busses, but not faster than some of the 40 footers.

The previous owner drag raced the 240d that I currently own and it ran something like a 25 second 1/4 at 55mph. So we're looking at somewhere around a 30 second 0-60. These things are SLOOOOWWW. Great car for high school kids, I hope mine lasts long enough for me to have kids, let them grow up and drive it. The only ticket's they'll likely see are "not stopping at stop signs" just cause it's so slow.

edit: oops, didn't realized I was bringing back the old topic, sorry.
