Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

90HP? But that's Renault Clio territory *vomits* 

Well the 1.0 Ecoboost falls in there also and those are good fun

I have a car fund from my grandparents for me when I get my license, I may ask my grandparents if I can buy a 68 dart with it.

I have a feeling my grandpa will be down with it, but my grandma won't be.

Mazda Miata with an LS swap. If only I had the money to swap mine.

why swap the nice rotary from the RX-7?

The Ecoboost is such a nice engine. It is so small and so cute. And a 3 cylinder. Probably high rev as well.

I really like Volvo's despite being labelled as "Old fart's cars". I think the newer Volvo's are really pretty, especially the V40. They look so much better than others such as VW's and Audi's. Their interiors are also really really nice. Classy but modern.

If it had a tiny turbo i think it would be complete.

That's why a V8 volvo is exciting.

And you can drive off a cliff and be fine.

I know what you mean, such a good colour combination. Speaking of good colour combinations, the Brabham BT45. The best looking F1 car in my opinion and the Martini colours really set it off.

Martini, Gulf, all lovely color combos.

 

Old Lotus F1 car's were gorgeous too

Yeah, it's a damn shame liveries aren't what they used to be. There are some expetions like this years Williams F1 and the Mercedes A-Class from the BTCC

Yellow and Black is also a lovely combination when done right.

I believe it is turbo'd.

I don't think the 3 cyl does have a turbo.
