I would also just giggle to know that I had that bi-turbo'd twelve in my car, sheesh, probably too heavy though. I can't imagine the thought of two side by side inline six's under the bonnet. I wouldn't imagine that it would fit without some serious modifications to body/frame. Although, with a longer nose, she would look more like the SLR
