I also found a copy of this Volvo 240 ‘Fall in Love‘ ad via Google Books, showing it as originally included in the January 10, 1983 issue of New York Magazine .
The text portion of this ad states:
FALL IN LOVE IN 9 SECONDS FLAT.
The Volvo Turbo can hurtle you from a standing start to a maximum legal speed in a mere 9 seconds.
Its turbo-charged 4-cylinder enging can blow a V-8 off the road. It has caused automotive writers to use descriptions like “Spectacular”. “A blast.” “Like cutting in an aftterburner.”
If that’s the kind of driving excitement you thought had vanished with the muscle cars of the past, test drive a Volvo Turbo.
It could rekindle your love affair with the car.
THE TURBO
