I might trade my diesel for this. Then again I probably couldn't afford the gas. Too bad VW couldn't make a W8 that worked because if they ever were to develope a diesel W8, I bet I could fit it in my car.  :twisted:

Hey, we can all dream... Although if I had that kind of money I really don't think I'd buy a car like that. I'd fix the cars I currently have and make them look like new, and probably put diesels in two of them. The '67 Cougar would just get it's current engine rebuilt.
