Yeah, maybe Jaguar should change their name just because their engines don't fall apart at 50,000 miles anymore. :D

There's a big difference between changing the name of a company and the name of a line of cars. If Ford reintroduced the Pinto line would you not judge it by how it was the world's most dangerous car and just buy the new version of it thinking everything's ok?

i would love to have a pinto, i've seen them at the track running low 13s with a stock 2.3 4 cylinder swap out of a turbocoupe. It would make a nice ass-ugly sleeper.

ummmmmmm....... my mother in law has an 03 jag s- type with about 7k miles on it, and it just 'broke down' the other day :-\ she had to call a tow truck to have it towed to the nearest dealer (2 hrs. away). i personally think they suck, and she's a dumb ass for buying a car that you have to drive two hours to get serviced :P

That doesn't mean with boost you will own him. Unless you break a 13 sec run boosted your still going to lose. I've seen a lot of boosted honda's on here not even break into the 14's depending on their engine. So i suppose it depends on what you have now

I think even road and track or someeone dynoed one with 240 hp to the wheels. If you go by your factory flywheel hp its probably close to 300.

Besides they have an lsd from the factory now which you dont. I was able to sit in one at the autorama show, I must say I was impressed. When your inside it feels nothing like a neon.

ill make sure i own that fool.....cause my homeboy with a stock h22 in his hatch beats evo's and im pretty sure the evo is faster than a peon.... and an h22 only puts like 170 hp to the ground if that.....so whats the difference when u have a single boosted that would put close to that if not more on 10 lbs of boost???...and that thing must way a lot..
