    Notice though...

    replaces the stock 4-cylinder/Real Time 4WD drivetrain with a custom-designed and longitudinally-mounted 3.2-liter Honda V6 and rear-wheel-drive. Producing 500-horsepower, the lightweight twin-turbocharged powerhouse is guaranteed to light up the rear tires and accelerate sideways at full opposite lock.
    Still... I'd like the powertrain in my Element.

    Beggars can't be choosers I'm guessing that is out of the TL.

    Pretty cool "concept" car though, and even cooler that it actually works and that they plan on competing with it. The gutted interior with full cage is pretty cool too

    I bought it for the . I get to drive the crappy Accord.

    Perhaps I'd go nuts on modifiying the 'E after it has about 175K miles on it and is near the end of it's run...

    Not in a box I'd love to see what they did to the suspension on that thing, but I bet it wasn't cheap.

    *Edit* It has Tein's...

    Yeah, but you were recently talking about the AE86 and it was retired when you were 3 years old.

    I've seen more AE86's (well, sorta...) on the road than I have those trucks...

    More AE86's than GM 3/4 ton trucks? I beg to differ...

    K20s were made from 1967 up thru about 1990... Somehow I'd bet there might be a few more of them out there

    That specific truck, the 2500... My dad had an 83 Chevy step-side that was supposed to be my first vehicle, but it was going to take too much work... It wasn't a 3/4 though. I didn't know the nomenclature was for that entire year range


    I guess I should have also said that a really good friend of mine had one (84 Corolla) as his first car
