Guest JessterCPA Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 no kidding i remember laying on a ice covered driveway trying to remove the plugs from the V-6 b/c it won't start (flooded). btw even when it did run it was crap. bosco Sunds like my 85 Daytona Turbo. Oh, my 2001 Jetta 1.8t was that way too. Jesse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirSix Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 The two model year 2003 to 2004 Merc Marauder adapted with an SVT air-to-air Supercharged 4.6L capable of producing 400hp. I mean who wouldn't want a 400hp taxi cab/police car/Grandma's Grocery Getter? http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/46/Mercury-Marauder.jpg/250px-Mercury-Marauder.jpg I tell myself that an N/A Forester is just an STI without all the fluff like, power, handling, style, racing heritage, and curb appeal.

Keredstg Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Yeah I agree about the NSX It's weak on ponies when looking at the price not to mention the lack of redesigns over the lifetime. Honda is usually smarter than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keredstg Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 The last Honda Civic Si hatchback takes my vote. The 160hp motor was a lil on the weak side. The SI hatch would have been sweet out of the box if it was gifted like the Type-R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SI hatch would have been sweet out of the box if it was gifted like the Type-R. they need to hurry up and drop the acura rdx engine into some of their cars. mostly the civic si and the acura tsx. the tsx would be a pretty sweet car with a better engine. http://newenglandsubarus.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JessterCPA Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 yeah, it would be an acura RL then +1 Lets see, TSX, turbo, and AWD?? Yep, that pretty much makes up an RL. Jesse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Se2002 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Every single car Ford sells on the lot now. Come on Ford, ever pick up a copy of Car & Driver and turn to the back. We have all done it, looked at 0-60 and 1/4, There's Ford eating everyone elses dust in all catagories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwannaSportSedan Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Cars that should have been continued, and improved upon. Mustang SVO. MR2 coupe (SW20) SVX Prelude with RWD or AWD. RX7 Lincoln LS V8 with sport options, and a stick shift option. Mercury Cougar should be moved back to the mustang RWD platform. Merkur XR4Ti and Scorpio. (new names and MUCH updated.) Lotus Carlton/Omega (add to the import list, as well) Cars that are concepts that should be production Mercury MC4 Pontiac Rageous Mazda Kabura Citroen C-Sportlounge Cars that should be imported that aren't. Holden VE Commodore line Ford Falcon line Ford Focus from Europe. Ford Mondeo from Europe Ford S-Max from Europe Noble M15 TVR. Any of them. That is just a partial list.

Merkur??? that car was the biggest P.O.S. ford has ever made. If you list the Merkur then you would have to add the Yugo and Yugo convertable.

godwhomismike Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I thought of buying that car instead of the Legacy GT. They didn't come with a supercharger from the factory. only 300hp stock. Which was still kinda slow. Both my Uncle looked at getting one and I was curious too. But it was slow as shit and neither of us wanted to put any mods in modding it. So the thought died fast. Still a sharp looking car - funny when you see one charging down a highway - it parts the highway like Moses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
