the e ray can be the first fwd vette if you keep up under 45mph under just batt power. still dont like the no stick option in new cars (dont care about the #s) and the dash between the seats makes getting road head pretty much impossible unless your passenger is a gymnist or yoga teacher

You have a point - MT is a deal breaker. If the Supra 3L MT takes off and Nissan's 400z MT - then GM should be able to use the Tremec MT in the C8+ or just buy a Camaro 3LT + magrheo dampers.

Hi everyone \o/
If i install one more cylinder in engine of rx-8, the rebuilding time will be more longer ?

I have this conclusion because the two cylinders that have it work a lot, and maybe one more could stabilize.

Yes - it takes way more time to add a piston to a rotary engine - in fact you might be the first to perform this unique engine surgery.

Hey- let's put a large row of large flat screens in our new car. Good luck seeing this on a sunny day and don't ever use this for a Targa or Convertible....


M4 anyone?

I spotted this a couple years ago and finally took some photos. I like what they did - a confession I probably shouldn’t share.

Edit: sure would be interesting if I attached the photos eh?
