    I talked to some hicks in Fargo who were hating on my Talon. I guess the ideal vehicle is a 15 year old truck with an annoying exhaust.

                The hicks that are up here in Minn., N.D., and WI actually believe that they live in the south and that sleeping with their cousin is OK.

                    The engine or the car lol? Two different things there, the SVO mustang was a quick litte bugger that ran mid to low 15's stock. The reason they stopped producing them was Ford was charging $4,000 over their top mustang model (GT's) base price, which eventually led to their demise. Not because they were junk or kept breaking.

                    I know, I have always just found it funny that ford actually attempted to put a turbo in a mustang.....which in the first place should have a damn big ass motor in it. One day, theyll wake up and realize that they should bring in a bigger motor, and build it right to where itll compete against a vette.....but in the mean time, one of my favorite cars right now is the Lotus Elise.....finally made it over here and now they are looking to supercharge it bringing it to 248 horses.....amazing what that much power will do to a car weight in at only 1400 lbs....i believe or 1700, can't remember.

                            Yeah even if Ford threw a little ass turbo on the 5.0's from the factory they would of been much more popular imo. But with all the smog issues and what not only the 4 cylie got the turbo. The lotus is def a bad ass car for having so little HP :eek:

                                Ummm the new GT500 is going to rape a corvette... bad. Detuned version of the Ford GT engine... 5.0 supercharged 450hp 450tq only down fall is an open rear end. Or what about the Saleen mustangs... over priced and ugly but still really fast.

                                And I remember reading somewhere that over in europe they can buy an elise with a 400hp twin turbo V8.

                                  You're right and I think it's because in general Americans don't like 4 cyl cars and revving them to get power. They want power low in the RPM range. Look at just about any American car, particuarly GM ones. Until very recently they were always strong on the bottom end but awful up high. They always feel great from a stop light but really just make a lot of noise high in the RPM range

                                    A LOT of imports are manufactured in the U.S. Your DSM is still an import because of where it was designed.
