i want my minute and 23 seconds back.

BTW cops did use Lumina’s- Ive seen a few. Mainly small town departments. Im pretty sure Schoharie had atleast one at some point.

And have you ever seen the awd turbo ~'97 Elantra at LVD? 10 second car. Single turbo Mitsubishi motor (those bodystyle Elantras used Mitsubishi motors stock) though.

werd, did not know that. ok so they were used as cop cars, but a luminia is by no means at ALL near close comparing to a Camaro

oh and before I get flamed for saying twin turbos suck, I meant they suck for making high power on smaller engines

5

With a 3.8 a Lumina should be close to a 3.8 Camaro.

6

32MPG, right?

I like hair gel.

7

Luminas had the 3.4, PAUL.

8

and 3.1’s well the 3100 to be exact. Sister has a 96? Motor SUCKS.

9

Some had a 3.8 though.

10

Damn, better go tell the 1500whp+ supras running big twins that they dont make power up high.

11

so wheres pics of this elantra with twin snals. id want to see that

12

He pulled some excuses first saying he didn’t have a camera because he spends too much money on parts. Then said he doesn’t like publicity so he shys away from pictures.

13

post said clowns aim name please

14

.

15

Actually no-one I know looks like they are capable of owning a twin-turbo elantra because none I know is dumb enough to think you can twin turbo a 4-cyl.

16

then i’d call bunk. if he has a cell phone he can provide at least an engine bay pic, even a crummy one. if not, im sure one of his fiends has a cell phone with a camera.
