"Good looking, great sounding fast car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hydrollic lifters needed replacing.
Engine had to be removed to perform this.
Thermostat needed replacing.
Cam belt had to be replaced.
Central locking mechanism faulty.
Faulty electric aerial shorted $1000 amp.
General comments?
Very fast when at %100.
Boxer engine sounds fantastic.
Handles great with fat tires and lowered suspension.
Small modifications can yield vast improvements in performance.
