The 4.2 was a great motor that loved to rev; you just had to accept the higher oil consumption and watch out for the chain guide death rattle. But yes, these turbocharged motors are much easier to modify and tune for more power.

Easy NP — the earlier prefacelift 4.2s are in this price range (which are also pretty solid but nowhere near as receptive to mods as the 3.0). This is a great deal unless there’s some crazy shit hiding somewhere. Low miles, manual, service records, I’m in. I’d probably be throwing the same CAI and (I’d guess) tune on…

Easy NP from me, in that condition with those miles and the stick. Only quibble I had was this:

Boxing Day, and you couldn’t find a Subie? WTF man??  :-)

I had typed up “I can’t believe this hasn’t sold already at that price, easiest NP in a long time” and went to click on the link to check if it was a salvage title. Lo and behold, it’s gone already.

Easy Nice Price from me. 3 years ago I sold a ‘14 S4 6 speed for more than double this with a few less miles.

Smaller group. More like the top 0.1% or 0.2%. From Investopedia.com:

I don’t know you but I love you.

*Spends millions of dollars on a Bugatti*

After the Veyron, Chiron and Tourbillon, the next Bugatti should be designed specifically to resist spills.

LOL - came here to tell the same story about my grandpas ‘73 454 Sub. 6mpg no matter what - empty, towing his travel trailer or big Bayliner - always 6 mpg.

same story with our 1997 k2500 with the 454 (3.73 gears though). all 12's all the time.

My buddies 1987 2500 Suburban with a 454 and 4.11 gears.

I was never really into the M5 except for the V10 models (man that sound was glorious). It was always M3, 4 and 6, now 8 for me. But were they always framed as a track car? I always thought of them as more of a GT class vehicle...Well it certainly doesn’t help the new one looks like it tripped, fell and broke it’s…

I have an E39 M5 and while it certainly feels somewhat large and heavy, the beauty of that car is that it shrinks in weight and size the more you push it. With that said, even the E39 is too big and heavy to be a legit track car, especially compared to the Subaru Legacy GTs I used to mod and track. Despite being down…

Owner seems to agree and has dropped the price to $15k last night.

CP by at least 50%.

There is a big red flag in the ad. This is showing in the L.A. Craigslist and on the very last line it states the truck is in Pleasanton (East Bay) ready to ship. Odds are this is a fake.

Nobody was thinking of these until the 6G Bronco was released, and then that rising 6G tide lifted the old boats.

No. For all the money, I want all the restoration quality.

Whoa, I didn’t realize these things had a turbo!
