Minus the SC, this would be a pretty low-spec Cherokee here in Colorado. $12k can buy you MUCH more in the world of XJ's. Crack pipe all the way.
Surprisingly, grinding rotors are not so easy to hear from inside the car. Turn the radio off, roll down the windows, and brake on a quiet street and you'll hear them.
The real issue with high-speed rail in the US (and with rail travel in general) is that things are just much further apart in most of America.
Those wheels and that wing ruins it for me. The wheels need to be a little less "Dub Edition." and the wing needs to be a bit more horizontal.
On a swap like this, the little things add up to big problems down the road. Kind of like a kidney stone. On the surface, it doesn't appear too bad.......and then you have to have a rock go through your pecker. That's what I imagine owning this will be like.
At 7500, no way would I bother trying to pass this stone. CP.
As someone who bought a coupe Fox-body Mustang with the intention of swapping in a Turbo 2.3 to replace the pathetic N/A 2.3, I can appreciate this. TurboCoupes have quite the pep to them and the block/rotating assembly is good for reportedly up to 400hp stock. As heavy as the TC is I can't imagine how fast the Bug…
I was all like "NP!" until I saw the radiator in the back seat then I was all like "Fuck, that looks uncomfortable."
Not real
Almost made it...

She actually said "Oh Lord Jesus, It's a Farr!" because Cpl. Klinger showed up unexpectedly. The flames were incidental.
The thumbnail looks like its from a video game. (that they need to make)
The fakest, and coincidentally best, is The Blues Brothers
Oh, and the Blues Brothers because it was a comedy but this stunt took the cake. Also, that's not Chicago in the background. Backflipping a cop car and launching a Pinto a mile above the city.

That reaction is always the same....not only after publically destroying your modified engine for no apparent reason, also after any kind of stupid public fail.
