Yea, it's pretty small but it's fairly fast when it gets over 3000rpm.

Anyway, my sis's going to give me her 97 Pontiac Sunbird (hard rock live) when she get a new truck. That car has a 2.4L motor with dual overhead cams and it's very fast. I don't know what hp it has but it must be at least 150.

You'll note in my post I never once mentioned that it looked good. It's the technology and the power that I think is cool. I also think it's a complete waste of money and fuel, and that is why I feel guilty for liking it.

I think FUGLY would be a better word. They're giving the AMC Pacer a run for it's money here.

Porsche should quit on the SUV and bring back some of their front engined water-cooled cars from the 80's and 90's like the 928, 944, and the 968. But of course then 911/Boxster sales would take a hit.

Please, God, no. Not the 944. The "poor man's Porsche". Ugh.

wju, that motor probably makes between 125 and 135HP only. That's all you need with one of those little cars.

the 944 is actually not bad, it's got 50/50 balance and enough speed. looks is another thing though (although some might disagree).
