Oddly enough, I was just daydreaming about swapping a duramax into a 70 or 71 El Camino. I don't love the sound as much as a SBC or BBC, but the acceleration and feeling of such raw torque is incredible. I still remember the first time I drove an LLY powered GMC 2500, and how much better it was than the 6.0 v-8

Am I losing my mind or are the rear wheels still spinning while in the water? I like the idea, but for something that large, I'd rather have a pickup truck that floats and a sea-doo launch ramp in the bed.

I live in New Haven CT.

Not that I advocate for Mopar, but you could save yourself a but load of money and just go get a charger R/T AWD (or a Magnum if you are a wagon nut like me), then work over that engine and still have a lot left over to make it a decent car without spending 102,000. So, I guess what I'm saying is, it is possible, just

Hmmm....well maybe I just see wet weather and assume snow.....I don't quite get your QOTD point though.

Yeah, but it only comes with a 4-speed Automatic, and I'm pretty sure they used the L-76 v-8 with AFM and not the LS1/2/3. Though it has been a while since I've been on HSV's site. Still want one though....

I'm all for safety and this definitely isn't, but more from the noxious fumes in my mind.

This was Clarkson's pick (well, without the body kit at least) over the Ferrari FF if you want to take his word as gospel. I like the extra ride height for the deep stuff.

There is a place called Performance Wheel and Tire in Denver that I used to go to a lot, they deal in used wheels. However, given the number of 'wheel' shops around the outskirts of Denver, and the former abundance of 'tuner shops', I'm sure that the high priced wheels have no problem finding a home. I'm not pointing

The angry replies to this article make me think that a lot of people are guilty and don't want to admit it. I'm guilty of a few of these, but I only used [Match.com] once and had such a bad experience that I went back to meeting people at bars in real life.

There is a lot of severe insanity on this post so far, but I've gotta say that the worst and most common in New Haven, the city in which I've found the most busted up cars and the most "I'm gonna do what I do and you'd better move" mentality, is the egregious use of high beams when the low beams cease to function!

WOW! Are they selling ice cream out of the back too?

So I'm not the only one who thought that the amount of smoke was more than likely blow through on the second to third upshift. Impressive numbers, but I doubt if he could do it repeatedly.

I think this really comes down to how comfortable a tall person is in tight spaces. I'm 6'3" bordering on 6'4" and I loved my fiero, I've had zero problems with an elise or an S2000, and I was perfectly happy in a Lotus Elan Coupe from the 60s (save for the fact I was wearing improper shoes for the pedal placement).

Maybe if it were the 840i. And did this have back seats? I can't remember.

Ummmm..... I think a lot of people are missing the 2+2 portion of this.

Realistically, is this going to be that much more expensive than a Bugatti Veyron special edition? I can't imagine them asking much more than a million per example. Essentially it is a Shelby GT1000.... sort of. It is a production body, with a modified production drivetrain, and a lot of kit thrown at it for good

Okay. Now I want to know too. That is impressive.

Is that 67MPG using the British measurement of a gallon or the American measurement? British generally equals 1.2 US.

Good Morning Lisa,
