BMW does't make a pick up. The Supra has a BMW engine....SO

Isnt the Supra a Z4 with 30 less hp?

 

Probably quite a few BMW's out there running around with LS engines.

 

Sure, they are still quite similar though.

 

I was generalizing, but yes Ford has done a great job with that motor. It helps that they didn't push it too hard, at least in the standard F150 application.

 

For the most part. Almost all of the interior and engine parts are BMW parts. You can see it if you watch Doug DeMuro and Engineering Explained's videos on YouTube.

 

ill take the 5.0 out of the rcf thanks

 

Doug is entertaining, I shoudlve quoted him on my post.

 

Sorry, Toyota Racing is joke. Didnt their Celicas in the 2000's have Yamaha engines in them?

 

I'm not sure, I dont know anything about the Celicas really.

 

Those Celica's were hot, they sold alot and they were expensive. And do you see any around? Hell NO! But their are RSX's still running around everywhere. RIP DC5

 

yeah the 3s gte used in the gt4 celica and mr2 was designed by gramaha

 

Lol

 

Please share what's so funny about it? Every brand that has built a v8 compact (Chevy, GMC, dodge) has realised after just a few short yrs that it's not worth while as nobody buys them and production ends.

 

You're just a funny guy. I'm enjoying your posts in here

 

The Dakota V8 was a very successful midsize truck. Dodge sold gobs of it for two decades...until it totally f+cked it up in 2005.

It came with a 3.9L V6 and a 5.2L V8 if I’m not mistaken...which is not small.

 

The Colorado V8 was introduced late in the trucks product cycle, probably helped keep it around a few more years.

 

They put the V8 in their because GM Fucked up and cut a cylinder off of a good inline 6.

 

That 5 cylinder never seemed any good, had the power of a 4 cylinder but used gas like a 6 cylinder.

 

A big part of why I have a Tacoma is because I didn't have time to keep up with a BMW anymore. I've had several (and still have one), and they are fantastic cars, but they must be kept up. You cannot just drive it for 100k and expect it to be in one piece. Maintenance is frequent and expensive. There is no comparison when driving one, but you pay for it.

 

I had a 05' Colorado Z71 Crew Cab. It had the 3.5 5 cylinder engine. I dont remember what kind of mileage I got out of it, but i was never hurting for power pulling my lawn mower trailers or boats. When it was running right, i really liked that truck(unfortunately i put way to much $ into it to keep it running right). The engine never gave me any issues though.
