Re: Lemon of choice for the 2025 season?

I'm thinking the Mazdaspeed3/6, the Neon SRT-4, and the Cobalt SS are all going to be high horsepower options with values into the floor.

I bet someone finds a way to get a salvaged Elise in the race before then too.

Re: Lemon of choice for the 2025 season?

Lincoln LS V8, Pontiac Solstice, 3rd-gen Neons, Dodge Stratus R/Ts, Fiat 500s, Someone's gonna find a way to run a Grand Prix GXP at least once by then, New Beetles should be a fairly accessible car by then, someone will make a REAL "Camcord" (combine camry + accord; possibly dual engined) and a few people will have a Tacoma "X-runner" of whatever they're called. supposed to have the same handling as the 350z due to some trick cross bracing. I agree with the Charger cop car guess, and we may even have our first Lemons ferrari by then. I know most of the 2+2 GTs can be had for camry prices today, so a theft recovery 456 doesn't seem like too big of a stretch.

Only if it's a twin engine quad turbo (per engine) awd dually.

Maybe you could borrow the BMW V12 from Speedycop.  I'm sure he won't use it before then. smile

Is that why it's presently sitting under the hoist, in front of the engineless Thunderbird, waiting to be shoehorned in? Naw, couldn't be. Speedycop only builds IOE cars the week before the race, and doesn't finish them until after the green drops. He's two for two on that. NO WAY he's working on something a month out. big_smile

Hyundai Genesis, and the sedan's Tau V8 will be the hot "unwise engine swap".
