there are kits to put a ford 302 into a volvo 240.  i know somebody
who did it.

in a more modern context, i'm looking forward to driving a cadillac CTSi.
the styling is a little outre for my taste, but it's getting the LS6
motor from the corvette Z06.  i'm hoping it'll basically be a Z06 with
four doors.  yeah, it's a cadillac, but it should be faster than the E39 M5.

the upcoming E60 M5 will have a V10 and 500 hp.  what does audi have
coming in response to that?
