When VW is going to get crazy, make it two engines 400 combined hp and AWD.

looks too much like the new NSX

also, Ducati engines need a valve clearance check/shim every 12,000 km or so. EXPENSIVE!

In keeping with the forum: Yes, that is better than our cars.

It needs a timing belt every 15000 miles and depending on how hard you drive a clutch every 4 oil changes.

By the way I own this engine.

Anything Italian.
