If I had a rusty Mercury Bobcat wagon, I'd do the same thing.
Also, HP numbers on these cars are never accurate. Dynos don't even tell the whole story. The 3800 V6 loves the track where its full potential can be unleashed.

07 Accord V6 244 hp//211 lbft
98 Regal GS 240 hp//280 lbft
Must be torque + gearing + apparently the Regal has "torque management to reduce wheel spin". Motherfucker has an eLSD in a Buick. I need to go home and rethink my life.
