If you had to own a FWD car...

Seems someone spotted the different intake.
Looks like a bit of a mixture of things actually, wouldnt have a lsx code then :p

I found out that it is a prototype engine used in Cadillac CTS-V racing. Not exactly a crate motor.

And I actually realized it wasn't an LS6 due to the displacement. LS6 is only a 350, Jay's is a 425 (427?).

Ls6 could be a number of different displacements, depends how you build it :) But because it's a gen4 block and gen4 heads (ls7 intake wont go in ls6 heads) and not gen3 gear, it cant be a ls6.

I suppose the closest thing would be a ls2.

if it was made in a manual id get a 03ish acura cl type s and mod it a little bit (those engines are badass and sound it too)

other than that a mini cooper s is up there

I forgot about the CL. They did make them with a 6spd manual, but good luck finding one. I remember because Car and Driver did a comparision between a CL and a 330Ci. The 330Ci won of course, but not by much.

Otherwise, I'd get a TSX is if needed four doors, or a new GTI is I didn't.

Cooper S or a Mk 1 with a 2.0L 16V

I'd probably go with some sort of quick VW. Either that or a Scion TC, they're actually nice cars.

How would you know? Remember when Julie had hers?? A rare 5 speed. I actually miss that car.

This is kind of what I was talking about in my previous post.

Not necessarily the body kit, but the widebody and the chopped top. I would take it a step further and section it and SLAM the shit out of it so you could shorten that god-awful front end.

EASILY the ugliest car I have ever seen.

The new cooper s' are turbo.

Spot on. I was referring to the new Mini Cooper S that is already turbocharged from the factory as opposed to the previous Supercharged mill. I should have elaborated more effectively. Meh.

ok so say we had to have one fwd car, the only one in this world i would consider would be this sexy beast.


how could you want anything different/more? Does it really get any better than this?
