There's nothing more American than a V8 that churns out a shockingly small amount of power and turns petrol into literally nothing.
7.2L V8 producing 200HP ๐ช๐ฆ ๐ฑ๐ท
i mean... they do pay around 4 bucks per gallon. if you do a bit of math, we europeans pay double.
and then it has like 600 nm of torque, but it'll do burnouts at 2000rpm.
and they wonder why even some americans don't want their cars.
and gotta have them pushrods in 2024!
In...the...60s-70s maybe. Today's V8 mustangs and camaros pump out 400-700HP depending on model. Yea fuel mileage still sucks but it's improved from those old models. Definitely not something you should get if you want fuel efficiency.
I can't tell if you're just being facetious.
