Wow. Welcome to last week.


2 things. Nowhere on the motor will you see "HONDA" and I've seen Honda do more recalls so far for Honda Oddessy mini-vans and Honda Pilots equipped with this motor more than anything else ;)

A guy might not be wearing a shirt that says "I'm a *****", but if he's limp wristed and has a lisp.. he sure is gay.
Same thing for the motor [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Pontiac uses a toyota engine.

The Pontiac [img]graemlins/barf.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/barf.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/barf.gif[/img] Vibe

And the vue has been using the honda v6 for some time now.

It's not a bad economy engine at all.

The standard version does, the XRs matrix and Vibe GT use a Yamaha engine.

GM is using the 3.5L Honda V6 to power their new Saturn Vue :(
Kinda sucks that such a big company is buying motors from Honda, but I guess its cheaper to buy a motor than develop the technology themselves? I dunno why else they 'd do it.

What do you guys think about a Japanese powered domestic car?

They have been for a while now. They're not really buying them from Honda. The reason they did it was that Honda wanted one of the GM diesels so they worked out an engine swap (Honda uses the GM diesel, GM uses the Honda 3.5L).

Its Saturn dude??? Who cares. So what if Gm "ownes" them. Its doesn't matter till they put them in real GM cars.

That's nothing new really. GM has been using honda and Subaru, Ford has been using Mazda, and Dodge used to use Mitsubishi. Probably still does.

Back then, German cars use to use American engines like the 60* 2.8. They even used that in racing.

Dont tell me Hummer uses Honda or Isuzu engines!

As far as im concerned, GM is no longer a fun company, the same goes with toyota. And honda is just a bunch of homos.

So whats left?

Ford - $24,995 for a Mustang GT
Dodge - $19,965 for a Neon SRT-4
Mitsubishi - $30,000 for a Evo (Nice thing is you can build this car to your pleasure)

And what does GM offer?

The Corvette.
The GTO

And two 15 second 4 cylinder sports vehicles.

The Ion Redline and Cobalt are mid 14 second vehicles with high 90mph traps.

The SRT-4 also now stickers at $21,195.
