Boxer rumble is too humble lol


Less than $15k? I'm so fkn buying one! YES YES YES perfect price!

I'd like to someday drive a swapped 86 just to see how the change in the inertial properties affect the handling. I know body roll is not necessarily a bad thing but the chassis, as designed, is pretty magical.

There's significant spinning mass added to an I4 just to control the inherent shaking forces.
