2.6 and a turbo is more power than a 50-year-old 4.7.

so basically, they should have got the statesman as a base instead of the kingswood.

more the point I was making is that the modular is like when ford australia switched to the OHC setup, then later adding DOHC when the barra was introduced, like the “boss” modulars getting DOHC.

It would make sense to me if they were going to make 2 engines to put in it, both a rotary and a piston engine. that was done with the RX-2,3,4, and 5.

“what in sam hill is a puma?”

I’m seriously considering an XV10 wagon, and until reading this review, thought I was going insane.

but cars do have bonnets...

and add an option for chrome wheels to make the boomer market demographic happy.

there’s only one special edition the honda E needs:

Maybe Jason’s new year prediction will finally be accurate?

or in the same way that a current 5.4 modular V8 is a re-engineered ford windsor/cleveland.

crazy to think you could pick up a duesy SJ in the 40's for current day $2000.

put one in your S600.

Honestly, NASCAR should just allow teams to make their body look like whatever era/shape they want
Want a body that’s the shape of a modern toyota prius, just scaled up a bit? go ahead. Want a charger daytona, with the nosecone, wing and all, on a modern chassis? go ahead.
It would make the sport much more interesting…

There’s Lamborghini, who used a modified version of their original engine up to the Murcielago. (1964-2010)
Ford also used the windsor from ‘62 in the fairlane, to ‘02 in the AU falcon. kind of ironic when you consider it was also standard in the AU fairlane at the time.

and the blower should be hanging out the front grille. none of this namby-pamby “on top of the engine” balderdash.

or you could come to Australia, and get one of these:

a Toyota Sports 800 in a small country town museum.

on road jeeps?

I’m looking at you, Honda E.
