hehehehehehe yeah that's true, but for an 80's car, it still looks pretty damn cool!!! And if i remember correctly, that 2.8L V6 is a Volvo engine right!?!? It's specs are not bad for 130 hp.

a 2.8 V7 only put out 130? I have a 1.8 4 cylinder that does the same?

quote:but for an 80's car, it still looks pretty damn cool!!! Very true. It is a cool car, to look at. It's a shame it was a dog and very hard to repair. The original plan was for a 200+ hp twin turbo version but it never made it out of the prototype stage. There were some adtermarket kits available to add twin turbos but I don't know if they are still available.V7 is probably a typo. The original engines were Puegot/Renault/Volvo V6-cylinders.

For the record, Audi did 5 cylinder engines before Volvo. I don't believe that Audi has any now, though.

I got scared everytime I got it up to 80. The guy I bought it from said to drive it slow... that way it will age better. Besides if you drive to fast you don't get to see everyone checking you out.

The original engines were Puegot/Renault/Volvo V6-cylinders.Just a clarification: Volvo did not design that engine. Volvo did indeed use it in a two door 700 series vehicle which turned out one piece of junk due to "the french" engine. In the 80' Volvo build 4 cilinder engines, the famous BF series!

GM is coming out with a 5 cylinder engine for the Canyon that is coming out in November 2003! It's based off the Envoy straight 6 and it will be offered with an inline 4 and inline 5. Inlines are coming back!Shadow Realm
