All sports cars should be manuals guy has never driven anything over 300 hp...

Higher horse power cars will make enough torque to roll with the just the clutch, which would make them easier to drive. So where exactly are you going with this?

99 viper driver here. What is so special about 300 hp? My 85 mondial qv has a stiffer clutch pedal with it’s measly 235.

Put donut spares on all four corners and I think we have ourselves a deal!

Vans have changed a ton. Admittedly, so has the pricing. But you get in a top of the line modern Minivan and it’s a hell of a luxury vehicle and drives and rides as such. It’s also about $10k or more less than a similar equipped SUV, gets better gas mileage, hauls more people and carries more gear, cruises down the…

I took my drivers license test in a 92 Dodge Caravan, I currently own a 2018 SXT one for the kiddos.

It’s a 95 Voyager Sport. Lowered slightly, upgraded brakes. It’s light (3250lbs), stock was 162hp/194ft-lbs, which I had bumped slightly with basic mods. Now with the SC installed it’s making over 300, and is an absolute riot to drive.

Driven an FRS, my minivan was more enjoyable before the SC.

Hardly. It “hangs” with 60s-90s FERRARIS at that 0-60, and is a comfortable touring car, NOT a freaking Viper/Race Car. And small coupes that FOLLOWED it were purposely built to be quicker to satisfy that market, Chrysler can’t build with a crystal ball.

Yup. Thought it'd be slower. That's not slow even now.

1. Fuck LS’s.

I can’t speak to that particular engine, but the Chrysler V6’s from the 90’s are not bad engines. I DD a ‘94 Dodge Grand Caravan (3.3L V6) and it has a gratifying amount of low-end torque. I don’t thrash that vehicle much (200,000+ miles and I’m trying to be kind to the transmission), but standing starts are quick and…

I agree. The only argument people have is “It only goes about 125!”

Why do you not have more stars for this? That was the stupidest comment ever (his of course not yours).

If the Prowler came with the exact same performance, but out of a 318, nobody would have been disappointed. It was really derided over cylinder count, and little else. The lack of an available manual transmission was a legitimate gripe, but honestly, they were going to sell very few manual versions even if they…

126 is probably the speed rating of the tires they put on it and is electronically limited.

Most 90s cars outside of Corvettes, Vipers, and most top-trim muscle cars were limited to that.

So Chrysler should have put a Chevrolet engine in one of their flagship cars?

Seriously . . . it also happens to be the quickest on the list above. If it wasn’t a Chrysler product it would probably get a fraction of the hate. Still a super neat vehicle and awesome test bed for aluminum intensive manufacturing. I’m still fairly certain no other automaker in the world would have built something…

5.7 seconds on a car from 2000 is...bad? I want whatever you people are smoking.
