I still think a ford 4.6 or even a 5.0 with aluminum twisted wedge heads and if desired, a tremec 5 speed behind it would be the bomb. You couldn’t ask for a better driving car.

True to the brand..? gimmy a break... the brand is Chrysler. Most people dont even know its a Benz, and very few associate Benz with performance. (in the real world). Maybe a chrysler engine would be better, but somewhat more expensive and more difficult to find conversion harnesses and exhaust system parts. It would certainly be cool tho to have one of those chrome HEMI emblems on the back.

When people ask what kind of car that is... and i know you can relate, as they ask me every day, what do you say.? Does it hurt you inside to say its a Chrysler ? Do you almost always throw in at the end of the statement "its really a benz underneath" ?? Just curious... no offense intended.
