I believe the Malibu SS is the first car to have the 3.9L. Otherwise, everything else Mikey has said is spot on.

They have 2. The 'high feature' V6 which comes in many different displacements. The 3.9 has been given pretty good reviews. They also have another DOHC engine on the way.

The SRT Jeep does 155 with only 425 hp. I saw 150 before braking for the next turn and it had 800 rpm left and was still accelerating. A co-worker saw 155.

No, the larger panel gaps comes from the plastic panels. They have to account for expansion and contraction of the material int he hot/cold. Plastc expands/contracts more then metal, so you're left with larger gaps so there's no interference on hot days/climates.

#1 - This article is old. The US is getting this technology, there's no problem with using it with US gas. DI actually allows you to run lower octane in a high compression engine. #2 - dbzeag - GM says nothing of the sort. They use pushrod technology because it's cheap to manufacture and has a...

You're kidding, right? You've obviously never seen one or been in one before. The Caliber is small.

Because the shocks can change damping rates 100's of times per second so you can have optimal ride and handling.

I ran almost exactly the same as you when I was stock. I think the Rs-2's area a really good tire for the price. They're pretty good in the wet too. I used them at Mid-Ohio in the rain and was passing everyone on the track. (they were Shelby Club drivers though...) You can adjust toe at...

Sounds cool...post an address or a map so I can find it. Maybe I'll come by with some friends. (11 Sec Talon and a RB20 240).

How is it NOT a Solstice when all they modified is the powertrain? The suspension, frame, body, interior, electronics, etc. are all still stock Solstice.

The E30 M3 is one of the greatest cars ever. I want one, and I will have one.

They used a T-56. It lists every part. The wieght distribution isn't messed up. The Mallet LS2 conversion supposedly only weighs 2-300 lbs more. And the LS7 has some lighter componentry...although they may have added weight with the tranny. (The Mallet uses the stock Solstice tranny)

I love the C6 vette, but that front bumper has to go. It looks like they molded an Elise bumper onto a C6.

Well there were 13,000 Solstices on order when production began. The first year of production was only half a year and about 7,000 cars with 20,000 to follow this year. A year and a half of production sold before they even hit dealer lots. The Sky is the same way. Some dealers are completely...

So did some other cars there, while others had a lot of money invested from aftermarket companies. I think everything there had more HP then that Cobalt.

Just the rear "sail" panals and tail lights. (maybe a few other minor things.)

The sound of the exhaust. All of the modded 3.8L S/C Grand Prix's I have seen sound like vaccuum cleaners (for lack of a better description). Fiero's have really short exhausts so maybe they'll sound better.

The quad 4 is sort of easy and it can be modded pretty well. 230HP naturally asperated is not unheard of with that engine. You can boost them too. Supposedly the 88 Fiero's were beating the 88 Corvettes around the proving grounds, and one reason they weren't taken any further is because the...
