Hahahahahahahahahaahahahaha!

I'm REALLY confused right now.

That's so strange.. I mean.. wow.. The irony.

I guess though if you found a ratty 308 with a messed up motor/trans, you could put a GM motor trans it in and keep it running.

was about to say they took away all the performance, but the 308s didnt really have any performance to start off with... Thats all i gotta say bout that...

EDIT: here you go, put a Fiero motor in it... http://atlanta.craigslist.org/nat/cto/1749840218.html

I guess it was a matter of time after all the "Fiero with a bodykit" jokes.

wasnt there already a 308 w/sbc thread?

That's near me. Yet I'm not compelled to go look at it.

Needs moar turboboosters.

Why am I thinking of "The Crying Game"?

turboboosters and pricey torque

Or maybe a lightweight carbon fiber frame and an extra helping of NOStrobooster.

Just a SBC/LSx/Rotary away from awesome...

i thought is was a fiero converted to a 308. I was thinking they did a nice job - looks real......because IT IS REAL.

Reminds me of something I saw... somewhere. Apparently the japanese are doing USDM Jam... where all the Japanese kids try and make their cars look like the American version... which the Americans made to look like the Japanese version.

Exactly. If I had the money to burn I'd buy it, ditch the 2.8L V6, and swap in something more worthy.

I saw this a few years ago on the GTO board, too. A bunch of Monaro guys (AU) and GTO guys (US) were swapping body parts. Everybody wants to be different, I guess.

Scrolling down that ad, just when you get to the first engine pic would be the PERFECT place for a record scratch sound effect. I'm just saying...

That actually presents some legitimate opportunities for a very interesting car at the end of the day, if you didn't care that you started with a Ferrari, but if you were the kind to buy it you wouldn't be the kind to care anyway.

yup, i was thinking of an Audi 4.2 V8 and trans like the one in that MR2 build over in the boxflare thread...

It's so beautiful, it needs someone on here to make the running gear worthy of its looks!
