@pbrtim: Well, the motor better be smaller than the car if they want to fit it in there. If you're talking about if the Hayabusa motor is smaller than a Miata MOTOR - then NA Miatas are 1.6L or 1.8L - Hayabusa is a 1.3L I believe, but while my 1.6L NA redlines at 6500 and develops 118 hp, the 'Busa motor redlines at…

Hrmm, so how much do you think one of those subframes would go for?

Wow, I can't even begin to express how much Flo irritates me.

I would actually argue that, as for developing a single technology on the American side - the development of radar was much more consequential for the war effort than the development of the nukes.

@mytdawg: You probably should have kept reading then - a few million for living expenses based on an average 200k / month expenses over the past 24 months, 170k of which goes to pay for both legal teams and 20k / month for his wife's living expenses.

uh, wow - would DEFINITELY rather have the Mustang. You want a high powered E30? M5x turbo or S5x work nicely. A v8's character is pretty wrong for an E30, but even if you did want to do a V8 swap, for the love god - using a 'vert with diving boards?!?!? Even a well swapped E30 with tasteful and appropriate appearance…

@Aivi Rentel: Here is a European car modified by a European tuner company. Greetings from America!

wait, what other cars coming in at 65k or less, regardless of seating capacity, form factor, etc... actually make more sense than this? At 63k, it seems like a hell of a bargain, even if it is heavy.

A good looking girl who doesn't walk away at the first mention of anything even remotely related to cars.

@BeanBone: I bet Ford had to go through crash testing again when they removed the fender "vents" from the Focus.

@RäcinG73™: Please point me to the nearest rental company that has a hemi equipped Charger.

"they'd have to go through environmental testing again on the engine if they were to change the cover on it"

@Nedry: that's silly - why would you want to blend the e30 with the e46 when the e30 was already perfect?

@wacopaco: I too hate parking lots and try to avoid errands as much as humanly possible. Also, I was about to go off on a rant about how environmentalism really only works when presented in the context of an realistic architecture, but since you're kidding, I can just skip it ;)

@wacopaco: i'm sorry, i don't think i understand your question - are you asking what the environmental impacts would be if no one drove?

I think the pic is right for the M3, but he meant to say the E46. The big clue was saying the E36 was among the best M3s. I was under the impression that it was the worst (at least, the 240 hp US version).

wtf - not only do they need to have 5 or 6 handicapped spots sitting open at all times, another 4 spots for expectant mothers, but now we have to leave open spots for "green" vehicles? have these asshats considered the environmental impacts of under-utilized parking lots or people in gas cars driving around longer…

Is Toyota spending all of this development time trying to figure out a way to ruin the FT-86 even more than Honda did with the CR-Z?

stupid US government / GM conspiracy - making Toyota recall a bunch of cars in Asia...

@Baby Beater Benz: most coupes have a roof...
