    LOL. I agree. The few times I have driven other people's car around here I cringe at how dangerously unsafe the condition of their suspension systems are.

    You know it, lived my whole life on LI driving into the city, just moved to KY last year. I had a 94 SHO that I used to commute with, I loved that car! Sold it with 140K miles to a kid in my church that beat the pi$$ out of it, sold it to his mechanic for like $500 2 yrs later. Wanted to cry.

    No it was the 3.2 auto. The manuals got the 3.0, they bumped the auto's to 3.2 to account for TC loss. Those Yamaha V-6's had 2 stage intakes. Ran like a grocery getter up to 4K, then the secondaries opened and it was like lighting the afterburners. No need for an SC or turbo. Yee-ha!
