This is a new development to me because I checked a few months ago and did not notice this, but they list a part number for the 3.2S (http://www.autotech.com/quaife/index2.htm). It is the same part...

Bella Ferrari!

I bought my first mid-engined car (an NSX) after driving my Dad's 360 Spider. I probably put about 250 miles on that car over the course of a few visits, and they were the best miles of my life. ...

I didn't say that they had the same engine, I said the engines were in the same series, LS.

And, yes, the engine in my pickup truck has very similar characteristics to the LS2. I've driven my...

I say they're not fun. I've driven a few CTS-Vs. If you like driving a Corvette that's carrying a 1000lb load, you'll like driving a CTS-V.

My Silverado has the same series V8 as the CTS-V, so I...

Uh - gul - ly

I can't believe this car. It's absolutely unrecognizeable as a BMW. I believe that BMW's "California Design Center" has less respect for the brand and its history than true car enthusiasts do. ...

Considered it, but I remember seeing the Anniversary Edition cars in the dealership and thinking how much I liked them. I actually prefer the 986 interior and I'm not going to sweat the 6.1% HP and...

I couldn't give a flying you-know-what whether a 300C is "faster" than a Boxster S. Somehow, given the state of the world, I don't like it when people ignore facts for pre-conceptions.

Okay, this is actually starting to annoy me. You are ignoring physics altogether. The chrysler is MUCH heavier

F = M * A (force = mass * acceleration). Therefore the 300 requires about 25%...
