That is an option but I think I would get more torque from the 2 H-D motors.

I was not aware of this engine. It looks like they stopped building it in the 80's. Also I found that Yamaha has a V4. I would use whatever I can find. The 2 H-D motors would provide more total torque though.

I need a V4 engine in my life so I would find 2 matching Harely-Davidson engines from wrecked bikes and put them together with a custom crank and flywheel to a yet undecided non-electronic transmission.

Alto RS! Since it now comes with a manual transmission this year it is on my list to import in 25 years. Do you think my wife will let me have more cars if they are all small so take up less space?

That looks smoother than the underside of a Saab Sonett III.

I think this means they are being more honest now. The P4 prototype was estimated to be at 81 MPG with the production engine. Also, the price figure was at ~$7,100 not thier $6,800 goal. I am hoping production starts soon even if they have not hit their goals and are “close” to their goals.

I thought Jalopnik recomended the smaller wheels as they make the steering less darty and the ride less insanely harsh? Maybe that was Car and Driver.

Very true I love Chorizo. I wish it was a staple at my house. I should start buying it and make it for myself.

The first gen Focus was also built in Mexico and both Mexican and Michigan built cars were sold in the USA. The RAM 2500 and 3500 are assembled in Mexico if you want a current example.

You can smoke a chorizo with that.

I would want to drive an AMC or Eagle Concord into work just to troll them, it is just as FCA as an 1980s or older Jeep.

Does that mean you can park a Mitsubishi Outlander Sport (built in the UAW Normal, IL plant) in the American lot, but a Mexican built Ford Focus must park in the foreign lot?

These would definitely be more efficient than hydraulic VVT, but I am not sure it would be more efficient than electronic VVT. It should be less expensive than both though.

Color me impressed. I am not sure what color impressed is possibly purple. The engineering looks very good. My only concern is how invisable the DSG needs to be for consumer acceptance.

I found a red one with manual transmission on autotrader once... I still wish I had the money to buy it and pick it up from Georgia.

The early gen 4 Firebird is beautiful.

It appears Russian and Turkish radios have a compatibility problem.

Why buy a half ton when you can get a 1 ton for the same money and fuel economy. Why by a “1 ton” to carry 3 tons when I could get a 3 ton truck for the same price. These marketing people must still be doing a lot of coke like it is still the 1980’s.

My mistake. It is classified by the government as over 8,500 lbs (3.25 tons), but the payload capacity is 2,000lbs; so they should just call it a 1 ton.

How about “3.25 ton” or “3 and 1/2 ton”?
