I'm at about 65k miles on my '04, and I haven't really had too many issues. The car burned through 2 catalytic converters before 50k miles (at which point I went catless), which was annoying as hell (and is apparently really common), but otherwise, it's been more or less worry free. As everyone that owns one says,…

I've had an '04 for a little over a year now, and I swapped in the 4.778:1 rear differential from a series II a few months after buying it. While it murdered my fuel economy, the increase in torque multiplication made a pretty noticeable difference in acceleration. From what I've read, that's about the only thing…

There was an LS4, but no one remembers it because it was designed for transverse mounted applications that no body cared about. It was a 300hp 5.3L found in the top trim level W-bodies.

A lot of the hipsters I know drive either Jetta's or older Subaru wagons. All of them ride fixies.

"The dual-clutch is probably the transmission I'd pick..."

Ahem...

The 6.2L has higher peak numbers, but I think it could be argued that the 3.5L Ecoboost has a much stronger power-curve.

Porsche 911. Everyone can identify it, and they all know it is something desirable.

I'm obviously biased as an RX-8 owner, but I'd argue that rotary engines are pretty easy to distinguish, especially once they have had some exhaust work done to open them up.
