Apparently the engine can make 450-605hp ... wouldn't have to take down the 610hp Lambo.

Im not saying do away with the NA V10 al together. But I guess having 2 versions of the same engine is probably simpler.

And why doesn’t Audi use a version of this engine for the R8?

Reinserts line from first comment - “Granted theres no excuse for driving like that CX5”

Neither driver was correct here, but just like in elementary school recess, “he started it!”

Just to be that guy theres no law against passing on the right. However, at least here is Michigan, “must move if blocking traffic” is a law. Even if its not enforced.

Ignores “Granted theres no excuse for driving like that CX5”. But yes, I hate the Lincoln driver.

No lie, I drive that route daily and people like the Lincoln driver piss me off. Granted theres no excuse for driver like that CX5(?).

Just going to assume you missed

I think he meant the other way saying “I think we had better cooling”. But they obviously didn’t fix that since the water pump is also the first thing I replaced on my Crossfire.

So I was bothered enough to find the source again. Couldn’t find the article I read but came across this video. Engineer @6:50 says the same cooling thing.

No hate, everyone can't know everything. Just filling in the gaps.

An engineer stated that Chrysler de-rated it because thats when the Hemi came out and an old merc engine couldn’t have more hp than their new V8. Also that the only mechanical difference was the Crossfire had better cooling.

Not as much as your mom.

Well good news! Theres a high mileage black one on eBay right now for only $8k!! Throw a pulley on it and have some fun.

Except they made a convertible and you know .... looks are subjective. Personally I think the SLK is boring as hell.

Blame Mercedes or AMG, never made a manual strong enough.
