Totally agree on the lives of the cars you mentioned, was looking at dropping the engine/transmission from my old A6 into a CRX with a modified cavity and mount set, would've had those horses and that tranny in a car half the weight of the former, would've been a blast.
Craig, you better get your butt in here and continue this in the forum! Haha...

I actually got rid of the SC430 because it was a yacht. A big, heavy yacht. It was really nice to drive, but trying to have "fun" in it was a chore. Went from that to the S2000 turbo and couldn't have been happier! (well, until my FR-S gets forced induction)

I've always wanted to do a random motor swap. Was gonna drop something powerful into the Amigo's engine bay if the engine ever blew... until the engine actually DID blow and I opted to just drop the $500 to repair it instead of an SR20 or LS1 or 2JZ swap. That would have been fun.
