oh, i thought they where the same (minus the overhead oil filter and intake) because ive heard many tapping along like the other 2.7

i think all Santa Fe's are dying all at once, had 3 last week on flat beds. and all of keep it away and hi un die have rusted out engine cradles and leaky rack hoses.

I guess he copied the info/picture and incomplete title from here (title to the article should be ...3 series rival) ? http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/news/au...w_3series.html

you know, those soul cars are kinda neat, but the commercials suck, you callin' me a hamster? thats what my boa eats (well rats and rabbits)

you cant make me buy something with a good commercial, but you can make me not buy something with a bad one.

the suspension layout of that car is sucky, worse than a pt bruiser.

i think i'd roll in a soul over that nissan pube. that thing is awfull looking.


i've never been keen on jags, the xj's looked nice but were real p.o.s.'s. horrible gearing and inboard brakes.
i know a couple of guys that put chevy 350's in them.

they arn't bad, but i like the days of the XJS and all the smaller and flat V-12 and I-6 jaguars.

to me, todays bulbous proportioned bodies, huge rims and extreme styling of the lights and grille are not my thing. give me something wide, flat and simple. old firebirds, vettes, vipers, Xj12's old porcheas, old ferraries, old lamborghinis fieros, pantereas, thats my look.

I think they need to bring back the XJ220!

Give ThunderbirdJunkie the MONEY for the Soul and he'll go buy a late '90s Jag XJR.

very flat and fast mid engine cars in the 70's (or late 60's i forget) they used a ford V-8 and where italian designed. in history they where known for very poor dependability, and supposedly Elvis shot his after not starting... i think.

Oh you mean the Panteras? I don't recall them having reliability issues with the engines, must've been the Italian parts.
