We're talking about the American public here...

Way too stringent US emissions regulations regarding NOx coupled with the fact that diesel currently costs more $$$ (even though it takes less effort to refine)

The assholes I meet.

Um. No. Factory forced induction applications are designed with requirements for the added stresses applied by forced induction. Using any kind of compressor will raise the compression ratio depending on how much air you are forcing in. This is why you see factory FI cars with lower compression ratios. This is to relieve the cylinder pressures and still see a nice big burn from that upped density of air. The entire rotating assembly and cylinder block are designed with extra ribbing and larger/strengthened parts to account for these increased pressures. Usually these engines use forged crank/rods/pistons and other heavy duty parts. I could go on forever. But the point is with a factory forced induction car, given proper maintenance, you should see it last the same as an N/A engine. The only time where you get extra wear is when you take an N/A engine not designed for the added stress of turbo/supercharging and throw a bunch of air into it. (Rotaries excluded, that's a whole different ballgame)

New Buick Regal GS is tits. But I wish GM would quit effing us over and put the V6 DI TT motor from the Opel Insignia in it. I mean, since it is the Insignia already...

Um, Jesus. Talk about old shit. Most of those motors were designed in the 50s. Reliable, maybe. Fuel efficient and powerful? No. That straight six revs to 8400 rpm and makes 333 hp at the crank. It eats older inlines for dinner and shits out carbon.

Lightweight my ass! 1969 Camaro SS/RS 396 = 3,383 lb curb weight 2010 Camaro SS LS3/M6 = 3,860 lb curb weight

Happy birthday hoe!

You have a Mercedes V6. GTFO.

The 3800 was cancelled 2 years ago, where were you? lol

You're fucking kidding me...

Not all of us can be old farts.

So much bitching about it... If it's car pr0n, it's car pr0n. I'm in. I don't care who it's narrated by. Some of you seem like you really have a stick up your ass about a TV show. Top Gear BBC is the best, followed by Top Gear Australia, then Top Gear USA. Gives me a nice rounded world view of the cars available. Guarantee you Top Gear UK never did a special about this... 013 Top Gear Australia - HSV W427

Ahahahahahaha! I'm not that young. I grew up on SNES. I loved playing Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit on Playstation1. Remember staying home from school sick one day and played long enough to buy the Ferrari F50. Wasn't introduced to GT until I had my own PS2 and played GT3. Been hooked since. By far, online racing for me was the best with Project Gotham Racing 2. Spent 18 hours straight racing online with a certain group. Amazing how time flies when you really get into the groove. lol

Ahhhh, the good ol' days of Playstation 2......wait, wut?

Lulz!

He ran out of road!

Whenever you want baby. I'll even be kind enough to give you a reach around while I'm fucking you in the ass.
