Let's see. Your M20 makes 67.2 hp/liter. This 2.0 skyactiv would make 77.5 hp/liter. Yes - there should be more advancement in hp/liter over 25+ years, but I don't think an M20 is the best way to illustrate that point.

*scratches head* 155hp from a 2 liter engine? Am I missing something? The M20B25 in my 1989 BMW E30 has 168 hp and 167 lb-ft from a 2.5 liter. For the love of sports cars why is this engine so weak ? I don't need hellcat power, but it seems like with todays technology you'd have to try hard to design something that…
Here I am trackside at the start/finish line, waiting for the cars to come around. They are topping out at 180 on straightaways like this. I am so lucky to be the only reporter actually on the track! To be honest, I was worried that the other reporters would prank me on my first day. They even told me to take off…
Sorry, Mazda fanatics. That kind of low power out of a 2.0 motor is a joke. You can laud the Miata all you like, for it's "pure-blah-blah" - but Mazda really doesn't seem to have much magic with the important stuff, like engine design.
You do know that on a road course, they use automatics, right? They have for years. There's a reason your Lamborghini and Ferraris don't come with manuals anymore.
The new Camaro Z/28 shows us that the Camaro, even in its portly form, has a lot of performance potential. When the Camaro switches to the Alpha platform (which underpins the brilliant Cadillac ATS and CTS) it should be a bit of a revelation.
if they want to be different, start by not rebadging every Chevy product into your own. Don't build a Cadillac Volt and a charge 40% premium for the badge. Don't charge 90k for an SUV and leave the gear selector stalk behind the wheel where it's been for so many decades. And please don't threaten to build an M4…

The TIPM in a lot of cases does not have to be replaced. There is an overlay harness Chrysler developed to work around the major problem in the design which is far cheaper to purchase and install. As a service advisor at the local Chrysler dealer I have approached the repair in this manner consistently to the…
yes that's an issue too, but that issue is addressed in the article and video. I'm addressing my issue because no one else has and it needs to be said. Im not trying to hijack the topic just making a remark
Does "integrated power module" read as "systemd" for anyone else?
Fix it again, Tony
okay let me get this out of the way. I just watched the first 20 seconds and something needs to be cleared up for everyone on this article. The "drones" used by video makers and hobbyists are only "drones" by the dictionary definition of the word. In reality they are RC toys (hobbyists will kill me for using the t…
IIRC, engine type wouldn't prevent a TIPM from being utilized.
Sorry but I could never imagine legendary journalists like Walter Cronkite or Tom Brokaw getting news about a war, then showing images of the dead from a Hollywood movie. Don't manufacture news, present it please.
So, if I read it correctly, this isn't even a rumor. Some guy in sheep country mocks up HIS idea of a mid-engined RX-9 would be. That's all fine and good, but if he's not on the team developing said car then this is the automotive equivalent of posting Star Wars fan fiction claiming it as a rumor for the next movie.
Keep making fun of hipsters Kat. They deserve it and it's why they do what they do. If they were't being noticed they would be miserable.
Can't we just focus on forgotten interesting cars instead of using them as a vehicle to bash a demographic?
