I fully believe we are in the mist of another "muscle car era" just not with big V-8's.


look at some of the cars on the market right now:
the hemi
the gto
the evo
the srt4
the ford gt
the new stang
i know im missin a few...
all full of hp.

“We wanted to get in early and develop something that will make that 1000hp figure while still holding together and being nice an’ driveable,”
For somereason that just dosn't look like it quite fits the bill.

you can do that with the v8, but that straight 6 might be too long if mounted sideways.

1000hp straight 6?
supras and skylines have done that for awhile. one that comes to mind is the 1,360hp veilside skyline. 215mph and street driven.
